Apply for a Scholarship

Please note: Starting August 2024, the Mary E. Bivins Foundation is using a new online application portal.  Applications and reports in the previous portal will no longer be available after August 2025.  We encourage you to log in to the old system, download, and save any previous applications and/or reports that you want access to because after August 2025 they will not be available. (You can log in to the previous system using the link at the bottom right-hand side of this page.)

The new application portal is Blackbaud’s YourCause Grants Connect.   If you already have a Blackbaud ID and password, you use those credentials to login.  If you do not have a Blackbaud ID and password, you will need to create one.  Click a link on the right-hand side of this page to create an application. We recommend you add noreply@yourcause.com to your safe senders list and bookmark the following link to return and access forms:
