How to Apply for a Fund My Mission Scholarship

How to Apply for a Fund My Mission Scholarship
To apply for a Fund My Mission Scholarship, follow these four easy steps.

How to Apply for the Fund My Mission Scholarship

If you are 18-28 years old, you may be eligible to apply for a $5,000 Fund My Mission Scholarship.

Fund My Mission Scholarships are designed to help you fulfill your personal life mission by providing financial support for the education, training, coaching, or certifications you need to follow your dreams. 

To apply for a Fund My Mission Scholarship, follow these four easy steps, also outlined in the student success cycle, on the right.

Step 1. Attend a KWKC Event

For any young adult looking to define their life’s mission, the first step is to attend an event with KWKC, either online or in person. Events are offered regularly on a wide range of topics, all based on Quantum Leap (QL) curriculum, so you’re sure to find a KWKC event that interests you!

Step 2. Join the Graduate Community.

After you’ve completed your event, join the graduate community on Facebook. Surround yourself with like-minded students who are also striving to fulfill their personal life mission.

Step 3. Complete Quantum Leap Coaching

Once you’ve attended a KWKC event, you are eligible to apply for our 3-month coaching program. QL Coaching is offered three times a year and must be completed prior to applying for a Fund My Mission Scholarship.

Step 4. Fill Out Your Scholarship Application

Once you’ve completed those three steps, you are eligible to apply for a Fund My Mission Scholarship. In order to apply, you will need to share with us:

    • Your personal mission statement

    • Why your mission is important to you

    • Your most impactful experience with Quantum Leap 

    • A GPS for your most important 1-year goal

    • An explanation of your financial need

You can find more details about everything you’ll need for your Fund My Mission Scholarship application here. 

If you need help creating your personal mission statement or learning how to implement a GPS, we have two in-depth guides that you can use.  

When you’re ready, you can submit your Fund My Mission Scholarship application during one of our three open application periods. Applications are accepted in January, May, and September.

Hope in the face of hardship

The recent floods along the Guadalupe River struck close to home for KW Next Gen, reminding us how quickly life can change—and how deeply we all rely on one another. As our neighbors in Central Texas and beyond begin the difficult process of rebuilding, we’re called to show up with compassion and action. Founder’s Day—now rescheduled for September 18—offers a way to do just that: unite as a community, fuel scholarships, and equip young adults with the tools and support they need to overcome hardship and build brighter futures.
