Why Participate as a Student?
The Academy Foundation is the only public charity dedicated exclusively your profession, supporting nutrition and dietetics students and professionals by empowering them to help consumers live healthier lifestyles.
Our Foundation invests in the current and future generation of food and nutrition practitioners as the world’s largest provider of dietetic scholarships at all levels of study. While our Foundation awards more than 300 dietetic scholarships each year, another 600 deserving applicants were unable to be awarded scholarships due to lack of funding.
Now more than ever, students are facing tremendous challenges completing their education and launching their careers. To help students face these challenges and meet more of the demand for scholarships, the Foundation launched its Make It a Million Scholarship Campaign, a three-year effort to raise $1M in order to award $1M in scholarships annually staring in 2025.
Donating to the Foundation's Make It a Million Scholarship Campaign during National Nutrition Month® and setting up a fundraiser is a great way to help you fellow students and support the one Foundation dedication to your chosen profession. Sign up to join this effort today as an individual fundraiser or part of your campus team!
