A trusted resource where single mothers can get information on scholarships for higher education

Getting a higher education degree is a daunting task for anyone but can be even more so for single mothers.  The good news is there are many scholarships and grants available for single mothers.  This website has been designed to provide information about the various scholarships, grants, and financial aid available.  There is also information about additional resources available for single mothers to aid in there efforts for higher education.  Single mothers have many responsibilities including looking after children, earning money to run the household.  Our aim is to make researching single mother scholarships a little easier for them.

There are quite a few single mother scholarships available to help women complete their college degree or continue their higher education.  A scholarship program known as Project Working Mom is a popular one that has been  introduced to assist single mothers in achieving their education goals. This scholarship pays for university tuition fees, the cost of materials such as books and other equipment, and other costs generally associated with completing classwork which are generally a big financial burden for single mothers.  Raise the Nation Scholarship is another program designed for single mothers seeking higher education.  This programs helps with tuition fees, textbooks, transportation and childcare.  Single mother scholarships are typically paid on an annual basis, and depending upon the program, may be made directly to the individual or to their account at the institution they are attending. The ROSE fund and Women’s Independence Scholarship Program (WISP) can provide valuable benefits for women who have been victims of domestic violence.  They assist with providing funds for counselling, surgery, and other rehabilitative efforts.

While many of these scholarships are provided by private foundations and should carefully considered, there are quite a few programs provided by federal, state, and local authorities.   Pell Grants, SMART Grants, TEACH Grants, are often referred to as Moms Return To School grant are terrific programs to look into.  Information on all these programs can be found on this website.  In addition to single mother scholarships information, we have provided a section with additional resources that single mothers can take advantage of including how to get financial aid to cover child care, textbooks, transportation, and more.
