Scholarship Applications for this year are now OPEN!!
The Well Yeah Ariel Roberts Foundation is offering three different scholarships. One scholarship is being offered to a cheerleader, one to someone pursuing a degree in ministry/youth ministry or a related field, and one to someone pursuing a degree in an animal related field. These are three things that Ariel held near and dear to her heart. Application deadline is March 31st, 2025.
Please note: Because of fluctuating market conditions the awarded amount may vary by year. The recipients will be chosen by board members and applicants will be considered based on meeting the criteria for the scholarship they are applying for, their answers on the application/essay, and financial need.
