Empowering students for a brighter future.
Providing scholarships to promising students.
The Henry Foundation is dedicated to empowering students through education by providing financial scholarships to support their pursuit of higher learning. We believe that access to quality education is the foundation for a brighter future, and we are committed to easing the financial burden for students who demonstrate academic dedication, leadership, and a desire to make a meaningful impact in their communities.
Vision for Learning
We envision a world where every deserving student has the opportunity to achieve their educational goals without financial barriers. By investing in the next generation of leaders, innovators, and changemakers, The Henry Foundation seeks to create a lasting legacy of opportunity, excellence, and community enrichment. Through our scholarships, we aim to foster a culture of learning, achievement, and service that benefits both individuals and society as a whole.
Our History
The Henry Foundation was founded with a simple yet powerful vision: to make higher education accessible to students with talent, dedication, and financial need. Established in 2009, our foundation has been committed to supporting the next generation by providing scholarships that ease the financial burden of college tuition. Over the years, we have proudly helped countless students in the state of Tennessee to achieve their academic dreams, empowering them to pursue meaningful careers and contribute to their communities. With a strong commitment to education and opportunity, The Henry Foundation continues to build a lasting legacy of learning and success.
Support for Communities
Investing in education is an investment in the future of our communities. By providing scholarships to students at the colleges that we specifically partner with, The Henry Foundation helps students gain the knowledge and skills they need to succeed, leading to stronger local economies, a more skilled workforce, and engaged, empowered citizens. When students have the opportunity to pursue higher education, they not only improve their own lives but also give back—strengthening their families, workplaces, and neighborhoods for generations to come.
“Our alumni and scholarship recipients are deeply grateful for the Henry Foundation’s commitment and generosity to those with financial need."
— Doug Craig, Alpha Gamma Rho Alumni, Scholarship Committee Member
