The Challenge Scholars Dream Fund is a specific-purpose fund administered by Grand Rapids Community Foundation. It supports projects benefiting Union High School students and graduates in the classes of 2020–2028, inviting participation from Challenge Scholars, parents, teachers, and community partners.
The fund’s priorities place learning and student support at the center of its work. Supported projects create strong relationships or supportive transitions, encourage high-quality teaching and learning, build financial stability for students, or encourage community-led, mutually accountable systems. Together, these priorities emphasize both students’ educational experiences and the connections and community systems that support them.
