A Ripple Effect: Scholarships to Generational Change
Our Change Continuum illustrates how a scholarship evolves beyond a college impact to develop the whole person. The investment in people returns far beyond the graduation stage, allowing recipients to take on opportunities, explore passions and give back to others.

Creating Change for Generations to Come
For over 25 years, our commitment remains unwavering. AFF supports students whose circumstances may have limited their access to higher education. Annexstad scholars are changemakers who use a college degree to unlock their full potential. The impact of scholarship dollars reverberate into years and opportunities beyond the four years of an undergraduate career. AFF alumni take their degrees to make positive in their communities and empower the next generation to trust in themselves to pursue their dreams.
