In 2026, scholarships totaling $224,340 were available to students pursuing higher education. Through the years, we continue to see growth both in new scholarships being established and more students applying. For the 2026-2027 academic year, six new scholarships were established and 77 scholarships were awarded to deserving students.

We take great pride in helping individuals achieve their dreams of higher education and adult literacy. Our recipients have taken the next step toward achieving their goals, of setting good examples for younger generations.

Individual donors, organizations, and the Chickasaw Nation Employee Charitable Contribution Plan have afforded us the ability to change lives for many years. Since 2004, over $2 million has been available to award for scholarships.

“Education opens the door to so many opportunities and careers. It is truly life changing to receive an education,” said Felicia Gilliam, a Chickasaw Foundation donor.
