Culver was founded more than a century ago not only to develop young people's intellectual skills, but to help build character. Character is that rare combination of mind, spirit, and body that gives a person the wisdom to discern the proper course of action, as well as the physical and moral strength to take it.

Our alumni recognize the importance of Culver's mission and give back to Culver in the form of merit scholarships for our students and campers. Their generosity assists Culver in its commitment to staying accessible to all students.

Those chosen for any Scholarship program receive the opportunity of a lifetime. At Culver, they will learn the skills necessary to become leaders and responsible citizens of society and will make lifelong friends.
