The Teri Bordenave Scholarship

The Board of Directors established this scholarship to honor long-time President and CEO, Teri Bordenave, who recognized the need for ongoing financial support for young women in college. Unlike traditional scholarships, which often only cover first-year expenses, this scholarship was specifically created to assist with the financial challenges that arise in the second and subsequent years of college—an often-overlooked period that can prevent many young women from completing their education. Teri’s vision ensures that support extends beyond the first year, helping to bridge the gap and empower more young women to achieve their academic goals.
