Paying for College
August 22, 2016November is National Scholarship Month!
November 16, 2016The primary mission of the Watson-Brown Foundation is providing need and merit-based scholarships to select Georgia and South Carolina students attending accredited four-year colleges and universities in the United States. The scholarships are renewable in the amount of $5000. More than 900 current and rising college students receive money from the Watson-Brown Foundation every year. The Watson-Brown scholarships are designed to fund students’ academic goals from the first day of classes through graduation. Our founder, Walter J. Brown, believed college education provided the best avenue towards success and fulfillment. In 1970, he established a private Foundation to support that belief. The Watson-Brown Foundation scholarships are awarded to students from communities in and near the Savannah River valley where Brown was raised and spent the majority of his adult life.
