Summer Staff Scholarship Fund

Serving on our summer staff is a step of faith. The financial needs are two-fold. First is the cost of getting to Ironwood this summer, and second is the college scholarship fund. Many of our summer staff would be unable to return to school next year without the additional help of our summer staff scholarship program.  Transportation and expenses gifts should go directly to the individual and scholarship funds should be written out to Ironwood and designated for the individual.

Each summer staffer enrolled in the scholarship program gets $250/week towards their scholarship fund plus a 25% bonus of whatever is raised in his or her name. Each summer thriver enrolled in the scholarship program gets $150/week towards their scholarship fund plus a 25% bonus of whatever gets raised in his or her name. All money raised goes towards the general scholarship fund. Be sure to designate your donation to a particular person if you would like them to receive the 25% bonus. Any undesignated scholarship funds will be applied to the needs of our other summer staff through our general summer staff scholarship fund with no bonus awarded.

• This scholarship offer is primarily for those students who must work in order to help pay their way through school.
• Scholarships will be mailed directly to the school or ministry.
