Scholarship Program

For over 50 years, the Minnesota Benefit Association has proudly supported education through our annual scholarship program. Hundreds of scholarships have been awarded to MBA members and their families, helping students from communities across Minnesota take the next step in their educational journey.

How It Works

Scholarships are awarded based on:

  • Financial need
  • Academic achievement
  • Vocational goals
  • Employment history
  • Community involvement
  • An original personal essay

Application forms are available beginning November 1 each year at schools and in city and county offices across the state. Completed applications must be postmarked by April 15 to be considered.

This program is made possible through the generosity of MBA members and support from our endorsed benefit providers.

If you’d like to help students pursue their goals, we welcome your contribution to this meaningful initiative.

How to Donate

The scholarships are funded in part by MBA endorsed benefit providers and in part by contributions from MBA members. If you would like to contribute to this very worthwhile program, you may send your donations to:
