Description

• The Carson Scholars Fund, Inc. was founded in 1994 to address the education crisis in the United States. When world-renowned Johns Hopkins Pediatric Neurosurgeon Benjamin S. Carson, M.D. and his wife, Candy, read a research study about education in the United States, they were alarmed by the findings. The study showed that our nations students ranked #21 out of 22 countries; next to the bottom of the list in science and math. The Carsons felt compelled to take action.Carson Scholarships are awarded to students in grades 4-11 who exemplify academic excellence and humanitarian qualities. Winners receive a $1,000 scholarship to go toward their college education, along with a recognition package, and an invitation to attend an awards banquet.The Ben Carson Reading Project provides funding to schools to build and maintain Ben Carson Reading Rooms warm, inviting libraries where kids can escape into the world of books.The Carson Scholars Fund believes that if children can be taught early to excel, they will stay motivated and have a higher chance of educational success later in life.
