2020 Ahlsten Foundation Scholars

The Ahlsten Foundation is excited to introduce the 2020 Ahlsten Foundation Scholar Recipients. Through their individual challenges, each student has demonstrated diligence, resilience, and humility. We are confident that they will not only succeed in college, but they will also go on to make positive changes for society.

Each scholar received a new Apple Macbook Air and a $10,000 scholarship, spread out over 4 years.
