First Literacy annually awards $1,000 scholarships to recent graduates of Massachusetts adult basic education or English language programs who are continuing to vocational training or higher education.
First Literacy Scholarships are awarded in recognition of educational achievements and potential, community service, and perseverance in the face of hardship. Both new and continuing scholarships are awarded.
First Literacy scholarships have helped over 500 adult learners with mentoring and monetary support. Every year we honor their efforts and achievements at our annual Scholarship Ceremony.
