Welcome to The Turnbow Foundation

The Turnbow Foundation is committed to improving the lives of disadvantaged children and their families through charitable giving, academic scholarships and access to career training.

Our scholarship and grant programs have increased over the years as the need to assist single parents pay for school has grown.

The benefits for single mothers having a bachelors degree is reflected in the fact that they are five times less likely to be in dire financial conditions when they have a degree. Our scholarships help single mothers afford the education they need for a secure financial future for their family.
