About Foundation Scholarships

Thanks to the generosity of our donors, the Brockport Foundation offers nearly 350 scholarships recognizing students for their academic excellence, leadership, and professional promise.

Built by donors, inspired by students

The Brockport Foundation is a nonprofit fundraising organization affiliated with the University. Foundation Scholarships reflect the passions and priorities of our donors—whether it’s a favorite academic program, student activity, or personal story. Donors choose the criteria that guide each scholarship, making every award a personal and lasting legacy.

Some donors are featured in our Scholarship Portal. Their commitment ensures that today’s Golden Eagles can pursue their dreams with confidence.

Gratitude in every story

The stories of our students are a glimpse into how your support is making a difference. Each student represents the impact—and the deep gratitude—we feel for our donors.
