The Annexstad Family Foundation was established in 2000 to provide college scholarships to deserving and determined young people who have overcome challenging circumstances in their young lives. In the belief that higher education is the great equalizer and given the opportunity, such students possess to one day be leaders in their chosen fields.  

We are unwavering in our dedication to empowering students who have navigated circumstances out of their control. Through scholarship support and meaningful engagement, we steadfastly advance our mission to open doors to brighter futures.

We act with honesty, transparency, and principled leadership in all that we do, always upholding the trust placed in us by our scholars, partners, and community. Doing the right thing is not just expected — it is essential to our purpose.

We center our work on the success and well-being of our scholars, building programs and partnerships that uplift, guide, and champion their educational journeys and personal growth.

We approach every effort with humility and generosity, placing the needs and aspirations of our scholars first, and working tirelessly to help them achieve lasting success.
