01
Technology Scholarship
Help Us Close the Technology Gap for Students
Each year, Rise Up Academics awards a $2,000 Technology Scholarship to provide one deserving student with a laptop, software, and tools that will last through college.
Unfortunately, we must turn away 15–20 equally talented applicants due to limited funding. Your donation can change that—help us equip more students with the technology they need to succeed in college and beyond. Together, we can bridge the digital divide and invest in the leaders of tomorrow.

Engineering Scholarship - NEW for 2025!
Invest in the Next Generation of Engineers
​
Rise Up Academics’ $1,000 Engineering Scholarship supports exceptional high school seniors entering accredited college engineering programs. We seek students with strong GPAs, exemplary conduct, and a passion for community improvement projects.
Your donation helps us reward future innovators who will design solutions that improve lives. With your support, we can expand this scholarship and give more young engineers the opportunity to achieve their dreams.

Student Focuses Courses
Fuel the Leaders of Tomorrow
Each year, Rise Up Academics hosts a transformative Youth Leadership Conference to inspire collaboration, critical thinking, and confidence in our students. Alongside the conference, we offer high-impact student education courses in résumé building, effective presentations, interview preparation, and conflict resolution—skills that prepare teens for success in college, careers, and community leadership.
Your donation helps cover event costs, materials, and access for students who might otherwise be unable to participate. By supporting these programs, you’re equipping the next generation with the tools, mindset, and motivation to lead positive change.
