$500 shot.
A small scholarship with a big idea: give an LGBTQ+ student a little extra support as they take their next step.
We want to meet you.
We're not looking for the perfect résumé or the person with the highest GPA. We want to hear about what you're passionate about, what you're working toward, and what a little support could help you do.
“What are you passionate about, what are you working toward, and what would a $500 shot from Ryan Gives help you do?”
Phone video is absolutely fine. No professional camera. No fancy editing. No commercial for yourself. Be yourself — serious, funny, nervous, enthusiastic, creative, whatever feels like you.
This page will be updated with the final eligibility requirements, application dates, selection process, and award details before applications open.
What we'll look for.
