As Google searches surge for “how to pay for college,” “college without debt,” and “scholarships near me,” one local leader is helping students take control of their future: Cory Thompson, based in Fruita CO and serving students across Grand Junction CO.
The Cory Thompson Scholarship Fund was created to give high-potential students a chance to succeed—no matter their financial background. With education costs rising and student loan debt reaching record levels, scholarships are no longer optional—they’re essential. That’s why Cory is working hard to ensure students in Fruita CO and Grand Junction can pursue their dreams without being buried in debt.
Unlike many national programs that feel out of reach, the Cory Thompson Scholarship is designed to meet local students where they are. It considers real-life challenges—like being a first-generation college student or coming from a single-parent household—and rewards ambition, resilience, and community service.
“We’re not just funding degrees—we’re funding futures,” Cory says.
The scholarship fund reflects Cory’s belief that every student deserves a fair shot. And it’s not just about money—it’s about mentorship, inspiration, and helping students navigate the entire academic journey.
If you’re a student or parent looking for support, or you want to nominate someone making a difference in your community, Cory Thompson Grand Junction encourages you to apply.
