Our Mission
The Trail Blazer Scholarship serves as an incentive for students to showcase their foresight, ingenuity and goodwill with the purpose of improving the world they live in. Applicants will discover their ability to lead, direct, manage, and execute along the way. The biggest goal of this opportunity is to draw out the realization in students that they have the power to serve as a conduit for change.
“ Roughly $46 billion is awarded in scholarship money to graduating United States seniors every year. This past spring, Christine Jacha of Elkhorn High School was one of these many recipients. She was awarded $1,000 in the form of the Omaha Trail Blazer Scholarship; however, these dollars have more meaning attached to them than others. ”
