Let us support you in your pursuit of higher education with our LifeWorks Scholarship!
- Last year 27 students participated in The LifeWorks Scholarship Program, which awarded over $40,000 to help LGBTQ youth with tuition, housing, books and other college expenses.
- Recipients were chosen based on community involvement, an essay, and letters of recommendation.
- The scholarship is open to any LGBTQ youth in the community.
- Successful applicants must be current LifeWorks members or must become members of LifeWorks after applying, participate in the one on one mentoring program and attend two LifeWorks activities each month if they remain in the Greater Los Angeles area. Additionally, they must attend a Scholarship Orientation which details further requirements for receiving the LifeWorks scholarship.
- The Tate Renegade Thorson Memorial Scholarship is also offered specifically for a deserving transgender youth. By applying to the LifeWorks scholarship, you may also be considered for the Tate Renegade Thorson Memorial Scholarship.
- Online applications are available beginning March 1. The deadline is May 1. Scholarships are awarded in mid-June at the GLBTA Scholarship Night at the Village.
