College-bound high school students and their families can face challenges when searching for information on college scholarships. Athletic and academic scholarships offered by colleges and universities are easy to identify, but sometimes those offered by local business, civic and faith-based organizations aren’t.

An Innsbrook-based company, College Funding Group, has given students and parents an answer to that question. The company has created a comprehensive database of scholarships provided by metro Richmond organizations to local students, and made it available online as the “CFG ScholarBank.”

“We thought that it would be a great community service to share this information on our website,” said Jonathan West, President of College Funding Group. “Our mission is to help students and their parents navigate the college selection process and then paying the right price for that education by exploring all financial options, including scholarships.”

The ScholarBank provides searchable listings with up-to-date information on the contributing organization, student eligibility criteria, scholarship amount, and application deadline. Active scholarships are linked directly to the contributor’s website, or have information on who to contact to apply.
