Hi Jeffrey,
Great question. In the photography field, there are several well-known companies and organizations that offer scholarships—especially for students pursuing visual arts or creative careers. Here are some popular ones to look into:
Adobe Creative Residency Program – Offers funding and support to creative individuals, including photographers.
National Press Photographers Foundation (NPPF) – They provide multiple scholarships for aspiring photojournalists.
World Press Photo Foundation – Offers training programs and occasionally scholarships or grants for visual storytellers.
Sony World Photography Awards (Student category) – Winners can receive equipment and exposure.
YoungArts Foundation – For high school students in the arts, including photography.
The Alexia Foundation – Offers grants for student photographers focusing on socially significant projects.
American Society of Media Photographers (ASMP) – Occasionally offers scholarships or contests for student photographers.
Smarter College Scholarships – While not photography-specific, it's a good general scholarship search tool with options that may align with photography studies.
Make sure to also check with local arts councils or your school's financial aid office—they sometimes have lesser-known, but valuable scholarship opportunities too.
