Coastal Bend Community Foundation Scholarships (Corpus Christi area)

The Coastal Bend Community Foundation runs a single online scholarship application that automatically matches graduating high school seniors to any of its 50+ individual donor funds they qualify for. It's open to students from the seven-county Texas Coastal Bend region around Corpus Christi: Aransas, Bee, Jim Wells, Kleberg, Nueces, Refugio, and San Patricio counties.
