What is the ASBC Foundation Scholarship?
The Foundation awards two types of scholarships, Millennium and Legacy. The Millennium Scholarships are funded by the Alfred Street Baptist Church and the ASBC Foundation. The amount of these scholarships is $20,000 disbursed over four years ($5,000 per year for four years). Two Millennium Scholarships are awarded annually. The Legacy Scholarships are funded by individuals or groups who may add their own criteria to Foundation requirements and determine the amounts to be awarded. Legacy scholarships awarded annually vary from $1,000 to $7,500. Most Legacy scholarships are onetime awards, however, there are a few that are renewable for up to four years.
