Improving Access to Post-Secondary Education
From big dreams to bold futures.
Every year, Mapleton graduates take courageous steps toward what comes next—college, career training, or a path still unfolding. Many are the first in their families to do so. All bring determination, talent, and a vision for something more.
With the support of our generous community, the Mapleton Education Foundation provides scholarships that help make those next steps possible. Whether a student is headed to a four-year university, a two-year college, or a hands-on career program, we’re here to help turn momentum into opportunity.
If you’re dreaming of your future—this could be your launchpad.
If you’re wondering how to make a difference—this is where it begins.
