Your free 5-page website
Each award in a short list: amount, who is eligible, and the deadline, with a clear button to apply.
Step by step instructions, required documents, the link to your application tool, and when decisions are announced.
Recipient stories shared only with permission, usually first names or initials, and the year of the award.
Ways to donate, name a scholarship, or give in honor of someone, with buttons to your giving tool.
Why the fund exists, the board, the area or school you serve, and who answers questions.
What a scholarship website has to do in ten seconds
Students and parents search close to a deadline, often late at night on a phone. They want three answers: Am I eligible, when is it due, and where do I apply? Donors want to know the fund is real and well run.
- Put the open deadline in the hero, with the date written out.
- Keep eligibility as a short checklist, not a paragraph.
- Link the application so it takes one tap.
- Move past awards and closed cycles lower so nobody applies to an expired award.
What is free and what Website Care covers
The build is free and matches our Launch Website, which normally costs $399 one time: up to 5 pages, designed for you, words drafted from a consultation, mobile-friendly, 10 revision rounds.
Website Care is required at $30/month. It covers hosting, HTTPS, backups, weekly checks, A/B testing and small edits, which is handy when deadlines change every year. You can cancel recurring plans anytime. If you want more than 5 pages, we give a quote before any work starts. Read how it works.
How students and donors find a scholarship fund
Students type "scholarships for first generation students in my county" or "local scholarship deadline this month". Donors search the fund name. Each page we build has clear titles and descriptions, headings that match those searches, structured data so Google and AI assistants like ChatGPT can read your awards, an XML sitemap and fast mobile pages.
We write your service area and contact details consistently so local results line up. No one can promise rankings, and we do not. For extra pages each month, the optional Monthly SEO add-on starts at $50/month.

Tell us about your group. A real person reviews it and gets back to you, usually within one business day.
Must-haves and pitfalls for scholarship sites
- Keep dates current. An old deadline costs you trust. Website Care small edits cover updates.
- Protect applicants. Do not post applicant names, grades or financial details.
- Get consent for recipients. Share photos and names only with written permission, and with a parent for minors.
- Explain how winners are chosen in plain terms so the process feels fair.
Tutoring groups often pair with funds like yours, so see the literacy and tutoring programs page. Our donation flow guide helps with the give page. Related: scholarship foundation websites.
