As Central Scholarship celebrates its Centennial Anniversary, we are proud to launch The Torch of Opportunity Campaign. This bold initiative, with its potential to shape the future of education in Maryland, is a source of inspiration and hope.

This campaign represents a transformative journey to ignite student opportunities and ensure their success today and tomorrow. It’s a beacon for the next generation, designed to empower students through scholarships, financial literacy, and long-term sustainability.

The Torch of Opportunity Campaign is driven by three core goals:

Ignite Tomorrow

Amplify Scholarship Awards
We are unwavering in our commitment to significantly increase scholarship availability, ensuring more Maryland students have access to the financial resources they need to pursue higher education and achieve their academic dreams. By empowering more students to succeed, we can help secure a brighter tomorrow for all.

Ignite Education

Financial Literacy for All
Students will gain the skills to make informed financial decisions through financial literacy programs. These programs are designed to help students manage debt, budget effectively, and plan for their financial future. By equipping students with essential financial knowledge, we set them on a path to long-term success.

Ignite Support

Operational Sustainability
To continue supporting students for generations to come, Central Scholarship must remain operationally sustainable. This means investing in infrastructure, technology, and development to ensure we can operate more efficiently, serve more students, and remain a reliable resource for Maryland families.

This Centennial Anniversary is not just a reflection on our past — it’s a vision for the future. We invite you to join us on this journey, where your support can help transform lives through education and empowerment.
