Your generosity will either go directly towards the scholarship amount OR will be used towards the “gifts of grace” that we intend to send to the scholar throughout the year. These gifts of grace, similar to care packages, will be purposefully crafted to remind the scholar of their personal strength, that they are supported, and that they are able to do the immeasurably MORE. We choose to speak Grace into existence.
Yes! We are proud to announce that we are now a US registered 501(c)(3) charitable organization. Once we receive your donation, we will either mail or email you a donation letter confirming receipt of your generosity.
Only if you choose for others to know! We would like to keep you informed of the scholar’s journey by sending you updates!
The scholarship is being granted to the scholar to be used towards educational expenses, which includes room and board, travel, books, and tuition.
No, absolutely not. Although the 3:20 Scholarship is grounded in spirituality, in the belief that there is a Creator by which all things exist, we do not require you to encompass this same belief. What is most important, in our opinion, is you understanding the heart of what we want to accomplish and, if it aligns with your heart, that you apply!
Absolutely NONE! We truly want the format in which you respond to the questions posed to be a complete reflection of who you are inside! Thus, there is no word limit or a requirement for you to write an essay. Seize the liberty being offered to you!
Because we believe in doing things with purpose and intention. Our founder, Dr. Darrien, has received many scholarships over the years and although they are eternally grateful for these gifts, they sometimes felt these scholarships were not designed to really know them as a person. And, they sometimes felt the scholarship could have done more to connect and be a part of the educational process in a more meaningful way. Thus, the 3:20 Scholarship is purposely crafted to truly get to know the applicant and to be a symbol of light for the scholar throughout their first year journey.

We intend to establish a day in which someone from our team will be able to hand deliver the scholarship award to you personally! Further details will be explained once the scholar is selected.
