What is APRO? - APRO's Scholarship Foundation

Association of Progressive Rental Organization members are dedicated to the future of the rent-to-own industry and have demonstrated their commitment by establishing a permanent fund to award college scholarships each year.

The APRO Scholarship Foundation is currently in its development phase, raising the funds necessary to establish a permanent fund from which to draw interest on a yearly basis toward awarding scholarships.

Donate to APRO’s Scholarship Foundation

The APRO Scholarship Foundation has raised over $70,000 in its permanent fund to date. APRO is looking to raise a minimum of $100,000, from which to generate $5,000 in annualized interest to award scholarships each year. The 2008 scholarship is an anonymous gift donated by a generous APRO member to help promote and raise awareness of the APRO Scholarship Foundation program.

It is the Foundation’s ultimate goal to raise $1,000,000 in order to award $50,000 worth of scholarships each year. Many APRO members have already contributed to the non-profit foundation via auctions, golf tournaments and member dues dedication. Please consider donating to the scholarship fund in conjunction with your next APRO dues billing to help a student achieve his/her dream of earning a college degree. The APRO Scholarship Foundation is a 501(C)3 non-profit organization and all contributions are fully tax deductible.

Education’s purpose is to replace an empty mind with an open one.
