There are three types of scholarships currently available to students/families in the Portland metro area. All applicants must have previously demonstrated a strong desire to play piano and motivation to learn music to a non-biased person (typically a non-family member such as a school teacher, choir director, person with musical background, etc.).

To receive a scholarship application by mail, send a self-addressed stamped envelope to:

The Piano Santa Foundation
P.O. Box 80214
Portland, OR
97280.

All downloadable applications are in Portable Document Format (PDF), which requires Adobe Acrobat Reader software). They cannot be completed on-line. Download and print the appropriate file and send the completed application to the address on the form.

Both the Stepping Stone and Grand scholarship recipients perform at community concert events. If you know of an event or venue that might be appropriate for a performance, please contact the Foundation with your suggestions.
