Foundation of Home Scholarship
Scholarship Sponsored by Wolford Wayne LLP
At Wolford Wayne LLP, we believe that a safe, stable roof over your head is a fundamental human right. As dedicated tenant rights attorneys serving San Francisco and Oakland, we have spent decades standing shoulder-to-shoulder with residential tenants, fighting against wrongful evictions, harassment, and unsafe living conditions. We never represent landlords, which means our community always knows exactly where we stand and whose rights we are here to protect.
Because we see firsthand how secure housing changes lives, we are proud to introduce The Foundation of Home Scholarship. This initiative is built on the reality that a stable home provides the crucial bedrock for everything else, giving students the peace of mind they need to focus on their education, build their health, and pursue happiness. Through this scholarship, we want to amplify the voices of students who understand the true value of community and a safe place to live.
We invite applicants to share their journeys, challenges, or triumphs regarding what home and community mean to them. By investing in the next generation of leaders, thinkers, and advocates, we hope to foster a future where everyone has a stable foundation from which to grow.
