A Milestone of Promise: Reviewing Our 2026 Scholarship Applicants

A graduation cap resting on a stack of books next to a glowing golden number 24, celebrating the twenty-four BFCF scholarship applicants for the 2026 program.

At the Boswell Family Charitable Foundation, we are celebrating a truly fantastic milestone this month. We are thrilled to announce that we have received 24 applications for our 2026 scholarship program! This represents a significant increase from past years and is a beautiful testament to the growing reach of our Christ-centered mission to empower underserved youth.

Behind every one of these 24 applications is a young scholar with a unique story, a drive to succeed, and a vision to make a difference in the world.

A group of professional board members gathered around a table, diligently reviewing documents and materials from the 2026 BFCF scholarship applicants.

Inside the Working Board’s Review Process

Gathering applications is only the first step. As a true “Working Board,” our directs are deeply involved in the operational heavy lifting required to ensure these funds go to the most deserving candidates. We do not take this responsibility lightly.

Our scholarship review process is rigorous, objective, and prayerful. Each applicant is evaluated based on their submitted materials, which include their resume, official transcripts, personal statements, and letters of recommendation. Our board members dedicate hours to reading these personal narratives, looking for students who not only demonstrate academic promise but who also align with our core values of integrity, service, and perseverance.

Important Dates on the Horizon

As we dive into Q2, our team is working diligently toward two critical deadlines:

  • May 15th: The final day for our Working Board to complete all application reviews.
  • May 20th: Announcement Day! We will publicly celebrate our selected 2026 BFCF Scholars.

Pray With Us

We ask our community to keep these 24 young scholars in your prayers over the coming weeks. We also ask for prayers of discernment for our Working Board as we make these difficult but joyful decisions.

Stay tunes to BoswellFamilyCharity.org for the big announcement on May 20th!
