“Thank you for enabling me to attend the program at the Peabody
Institute in Baltimore … It was enriching and gave me food for the
soul that will be with me always.” — Scholarship
Recipient from Pennsylvania
The Peabody Institute, Maryland

Scholarships play an important
role in Elderhostel’s mission by helping people of limited
financial means participate in the exchange of ideas, camaraderie
and enjoyment of an Elderhostel program. We receive letters every
week from scholarship recipients telling us how much they appreciate
this unique opportunity to learn and grow. |
By establishing a Named Scholarship Fund, you can help others experience
the intellectual stimulation, friendship and enjoyment of Elderhostel.
These special Funds not only provide scholarships, they also provide
an opportunity for you to honor a loved one — or yourself —
in perpetuity. This gift creates a legacy that will continue to offer
learning opportunities to future generations.
