Awakening Together offers scholarships for Awakening Together members who would like to join for an Awakening Together event but need financial assistance to do so. We offer:
- Lodging Scholarships
- In Person Retreat Scholarships
- Online Retreat Scholarships
- Event Scholarships
You can learn about and apply for these types of scholarships on this page. Those who have not received a scholarship in the past two years are considered first.
Lodging Scholarships
Lodging scholarships are available for a shared room or for a room in the co-ed dorm area at a 50% reduced rate of $42.50 per day plus tax. Scholarships are not available for private single rooms. You may apply for a lodging scholarship in conjunction with a retreat scholarship or you may apply for a lodging scholarship only. It may take up to two weeks to review and approve a scholarship application, so we recommend applying as early as possible.
Stipulations:
- If you are approved for a lodging scholarship, you must make your reservation and pay $42.50 + tax as a deposit within two weeks of receiving approval or you forfeit the scholarship.
- Scholarship deposits are non-refundable.
- The balance due must be paid 60 days prior to your arrival date or in full if your arrival date is sooner than 60 days away.
