About the Foundation

The Beacon Education Foundation was established in 2012 to help ECPI University students stay on track when unexpected financial challenges get in the way.

We support students pursuing career-focused pathways in technology, business, criminal justice, health sciences, culinary arts, and skilled trades. Through scholarships, Beacon helps students remain enrolled and finish their programs.

Most students today are managing more than just school. Jobs, childcare, military service, and family responsibilities are all part of the picture. An unexpected expense can disrupt that balance quickly. Beacon exists to help students work through those moments and keep going.

Since 2013, Beacon has awarded more than $700,000 in scholarships to students with demonstrated financial need. Every dollar donated goes directly to a student.
