Iowa Proud, Inc. was formed from a commitment of six life-long friends to give back to the school where their bonds formed.
Each year the Board of Directors reviews students applications and selects a candidate(s) to receive the Iowa Grown Scholarship.
We decided not to follow the traditional scholarship process of focusing on grades and testing. Our focus is on dynamic students who demonstrate high potential.
6 life-long friends decided it was time to do something good. They all took different paths in their lives, but the one constant was their connection. They have supported each other for over 30 years in every way possible and decided they can be doing more to support others.
We focus on giving back to students who have potential to impact the world with greatness, which can take many different forms.
We look for students who are similar to the Board of Directors at that point in their lives - multiple priorities beyond academics, and the desire to follow our passion.
