The New Hampshire Charitable Foundation is now accepting applications for student aid for the 2025 – 2026 academic year.

You may already be aware that there is a very large scholarship fund available to our students – the Winthrop L. and Bernice Blake Perry Scholarship Fund. This fund makes multi-year awards of significant size to students who currently live in Wilton, Lyndeborough, or Milford and have resided there for at least two years. Recipients are chosen based on their excellent character, academic performance, talent, ambition, and financial need. Students must live in Wilton, Lyndeborough, or Milford to be eligible for this fund. Finalists for the Perry scholarship will be required to attend an in-person interview with the selection committee during the morning of Saturday, April 12 in Milford. To access the Charitable Foundation’s online scholarship application, students can visit www.nhcf.org, click “Login” and then select “ScholarshipSource.”

This year’s deadlines are:

  • February 21st at 5:00 pm ET: Winthrop L. and Bernice Blake Perry Scholarship Fund - due to Winter Break February 24-28
  • April 11th at 5:00 pm ET: 4-year degree candidates under age 24

If any students miss the February 21st Perry deadline, they are still encouraged to apply by the April 11th deadline. The Perry is only one of their 500+ scholarship funds. The Charitable Foundation has many resources for students beyond the Perry Scholarship Fund. Students pursuing all types of education after high school should be encouraged to apply, including 2-year students as well as certificate and other non-degree students. Applications from 2-year students as well as certificate and other non-degree students are accepted on a rolling deadline. Charitable Foundation staff will respond to 2-year and non-degree students within 4-6 weeks of application submission. We hope that you will make a special effort to apply for these opportunities.
