Scholarships

Since its inception, Minnesota Masonic Charities has awarded over $15 million in scholarships to students in Minnesota, including high school seniors, undergraduates, and trade school students. Our scholarship programs recognize both academic excellence and outstanding character, as reflected in our newest award, the Selfless Scholar, which honors students who lead with empathy and kindness. Supporting students in achieving their educational goals is a core part of our mission, and one of the most powerful ways we invest in a brighter future for all.
