Scholarships
In 2011, when our founder and Executive Director, Sally Auger, retired, we wanted to honor her commitment to helping Native youth thrive and succeed. The Sally Auger Rising Star Youth Scholarship recognizes the motivation of Garden Warriors youth we work with, who are actively working to improve their own lives and the life of their community.
The Ernie Whiteman Memorial scholarship was created in 2022 to honor Ernie’s memory and recognize Native youths who carry themselves with strong hearts, show deep love for their community, and demonstrate great leadership.
Each year a small committee reviews potential applicants and awards the funds to help individuals pay for tuition, books, and living expenses while attending college or other post-secondary education.
