Bonner Scholars Program

The Bonner Scholars Program, a project of the Corella and Bertram F. Bonner Foundation, seeks to transform the lives of students at 27 colleges and universities as well as their campuses, local communities and nation by providing access to education and opportunities to serve. The program supports these collaborations by offering four-year scholarship awards to students with a sustained record of service and a high level of financial need. A diverse group of approximately 100 students is currently involved in the BSP at the University of Richmond, making it the largest program in the country. The BSP is designed to deepen Scholars' education and commitment to social justice and civic engagement by asking them to engage in weekly service throughout their time in college. Bonner Scholars are also encouraged to develop knowledge and skills that support this work through a variety of enrichment programs on campus, in the Richmond community and via the national Bonner Scholars network.
