We're bringing something new to the 2026 EKO Scholarship Program

January 22, 2026

Applicants can now connect with a scholarship Coach to guide them through the process

We are connecting applicants with a scholarship Coach to guide them through the process, answer any questions they may have, or provide helpful tips for making their applications more effective.
Applicants are encouraged to reach out to Charlene, an independent scholarship Coach whose career as a high school educator and administrator was dedicated to student success.

Charlene will give students guidance and help them meet the requirements—ensuring they are providing the Review Committee with an application that clearly states what they want to learn, why it matters and how it supports the future they want to build.

She will also help applicants find the best ways to organize their applications and keep track of deadlines.

Each EKO Scholarship applicant has the opportunity to connect with Charlene for two 30-minute sessions.

Learn more about what to expect from a scholarship Coach or reach out to Charlene at scholarshipcoachEKO@gmail.com to book your sessions!

Conversations from coaching sessions will not be shared with any members of the Review Committee so as not to influence, in any way, committee decisions.
