The Vertical Bridge Charitable Network (VBCN) is proud to offer an ongoing scholarship initiative aimed at supporting the academic pursuits of Vertical Bridge employees and their immediate family members.
This program grants 25 scholarships annually, with a combined value of $200,000. With over $980,000 in scholarship funds awarded since the program's launch 2014, Vertical Bridge continues to make a lasting impact on the personal growth and professional development of our team and their family members.
To qualify, scholarship applicants must be current full-time Vertical Bridge employees or their immediate family members. Candidates must submit up-to-date academic transcripts as well as a letter of acceptance or proof of enrollment as a high school senior or a full-time student in undergraduate, graduate, or trade school programs with a minimum GPA of 2.75. Additionally, applicants are asked to provide a letter of reference from a non-relative and compose an essay on one of the topics provided in the application form.
A dedicated selection committee made up of Vertical Bridge team members from across the organization oversees the scholarship application process, ensuring a fair review and evaluation of each applicant. The committee evaluates applications based on merit to identify and select the 25 top-scoring candidates each year.
On behalf of the Vertical Bridge team, we want to congratulate all the 2024 scholarship recipients and wish them a successful school year full of inspiration and academic fulfillment!
