The Wells Mountain Foundation is a public charitable
foundation based in Bristol, Vermont,
USA, which has been approved under the United States
Internal Revenue Service under Section
501(c)(3). The purpose of the Foundation is primarily to
support programs and individuals in
developing nations or other situations of extreme poverty.
Each year the Foundation’s Empowerment Through Education
program provides support
to students as they pursue various educational objectives.
Support is provided for post-secondary
school (college, university, polytechnic, trade school).
Support is not provided for graduate degrees
or study in the US, UK or other developed countries.
Financial support is primarily to cover the
costs of the education itself and directly related expenses
including books and supplies.
Scholarships are generally granted for the full period of
study, however, recipients must
maintain good grades and provide copies of all semester
reports and grades as they are received.
The scholarship can be discontinued at any time in the event
of unsatisfactory performance.
The scholarship awards are determined by the Scholarship
Committee of the Board of
Directors of the Wells Mountain Foundation and awarded once a
year. Applications must be
received by April 1, 2013 to be considered for the 2013-2014
school year.
