Young Benefactor Scholar

Young Benefactor Scholar Donors are members of YBC who specifically commit to RE’s financial aid program to provide an immediate full scholarship for one student, including lunch and related expenses. The Young Benefactor Scholar funds are used within the year that the gift is made, and a minimum commitment of four years is requested in order to provide continuity of support for the student. Families receiving a Young Benefactor Scholarship will be notified that they are the recipient, and donors will receive an annual update documenting the student’s progress during each year of funding.

Founded in 1903, Ransom Everglades School is a coeducational, college preparatory day school for grades 6 - 12 located on two campuses in Coconut Grove, Florida. Ransom Everglades School produces graduates who "believe that they are in the world not so much for what they can get out of it as for what they can put into it." The school provides rigorous college preparation that promotes the student's sense of identity, community, personal integrity and values for a productive and satisfying life, and prepares the student to lead and to contribute to society.
