Prince of Peace Foundation Scholarships
The 2026–2027 Prince of Peace Foundation Scholarship application period is now closed, and we are delighted to announce that eight scholarships of $2,000 each have been awarded to deserving students pursuing higher education!
The Prince of Peace Foundation is grateful for the opportunity to support the educational goals of members of our Prince of Peace family and their families. We congratulate this year’s scholarship recipients and pray for God’s blessings upon them as they continue their studies and pursue their goals.
Congratulations to our 2026–2027 scholarship recipients! May God guide and encourage you throughout the year ahead.
