PAGE EDUCATION FOUNDATION

Founded in 1988 by Alan and Diane Page, the Page Education Foundation is a Minneapolis-based nonprofit that awards renewable Page Grants to Minnesota students of color who enroll in Minnesota post-secondary institutions. Its model combines financial support with a required Service-to-Children component and professional development (Page Connections) so scholars both persist in higher education and serve as role models for K–8 students. In recent years the Foundation has scaled its scholarship program and programming: it reports cumulative impact measured in millions awarded to thousands of Page Scholars, hundreds of thousands of volunteer hours mentoring K–8 children, and ongoing investments in scholar career preparation. In 2025–2026 the Foundation announced a major expansion in the number and total value of Page Grants and a move to cover full cost of attendance for scholars beginning in Fall 2025, while continuing annual application cycles and scholar supports.
