The Innovia Foundation has established a scholarship program to assist students in Eastern Washington and North Idaho who plan to continue their education in undergraduate college or vocational school programs.
This program is administered by Scholarship America®, the nation’s largest designer and manager of scholarship, tuition assistance, and other education support programs for corporations, foundations, associations, and individuals.

It is the policy of the Innovia Foundation not to discriminate in the awarding of any grant or scholarship on the basis of race, religion, gender, national origin, sexual orientation, age, or disability. However, the donors of some of the Foundation’s scholarship funds have established specific criteria for the awarding of scholarships.
