Give to LEAD Scholarships

LEAD Scholars General Fund
Your gift provides support to underrepresented minority students, accepted to the University of Michigan, through merit-scholarships and inclusive programming that aims to foster community and empower scholars throughout college and beyond. Scholarships are awarded to students that demonstrate leadership, excellence, achievement, and diversity.
"Becoming a LEAD Scholar gave me the assurance that I was going to be part of a community within such a large university — not merely any community, but one that encourages and embraces my background and culture." — Ignacio Barreras, '23
