— Why Partner with KSEF

A Verifiable, Decades-Long Record of Impact

The Kappa Scholarship Endowment Fund, Inc.^® has operated as one of Washington, DC’s most trusted educational nonprofits since 1984. With a $6.5 million endowment, $4.2+ million in scholarships awarded, and more than 900 DC students supported, KSEF offers corporate partners something most giving opportunities cannot: a verifiable, decades-long record of impact in the community your business calls home.

Community Impact

Your partnership funds annual scholarships for graduating seniors of DC’s public and public charter high schools — students who have earned a 2.5 GPA or higher, demonstrated financial need, and secured a place at an accredited four-year college or university. This is local, measurable, and lasting impact.

Brand Visibility

KSEF’s reach spans community leaders, civic organizations, alumni networks, academic institutions, and the broader Washington, DC philanthropic community. Corporate partners receive recognition and visibility among one of the region’s most engaged networks of community stakeholders.

Mission Alignment

Associating your brand with educational equity, community investment, and 40+ years of trusted service in Washington, DC sends a clear signal: your organization is committed to the community, not just operating in it.

All sponsorships and gifts to KSEF are fully tax deductible as contributions to a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation.

— Name a Scholarship (NESP)

The Ultimate Corporate Partnership

Through KSEF’s Named Endowed Scholarship Program, your organization can fund a permanent scholarship in your company’s name — one that supports a DC student’s education year after year, in perpetuity.

Your scholarship becomes a permanent part of KSEF’s endowment, and your company’s name becomes part of KSEF’s legacy.
