Florence Allen Scholarship

The Allen Endowment is pleased to announce the Florence Allen Scholarship Program for the 2024 – 2025
academic year. Ohio women (high school seniors and older) who are in need of financial aid to pursue an
undergraduate degree or technical certificate are invited to apply.

The Florence Allen Scholarship was established in 1924 to honor Judge Florence Ellinwood Allen, the first

women have received $121,700 in financial aid.

In 2024 – 2025, scholarships will range from $500 to $1,000. Funds are for the 2024 – 2025 academic
year only and may be used at accredited degree or certificate by granting institutions recognized by
