Henry County Community Foundation Scholarships Opening Soon
Offered by Henry County Community Foundation
About This Scholarship
The Henry County Community Foundation in New Castle, Indiana administers more than 100 scholarship opportunities for students in Henry County, east of Indianapolis. The foundation has posted its next cycle for current high school seniors: 2027-2028 scholarships open Monday, November 2, 2026 with a deadline of Monday, February 1, 2027.
Like most Indiana county community foundations, Henry County consolidates its donor-established funds into a coordinated application process, so seniors are considered across the foundation's slate of opportunities rather than applying fund by fund. Awards span academic merit, financial need, intended majors, and school-specific criteria defined by the donors who created each fund.
With over 100 opportunities in a county of roughly 48,000 people, the odds here are meaningfully better than national scholarship competitions — a pattern that holds across Indiana's county foundation network.
