Luverne Dollars for Scholars is a non-profit community-based scholarship program which was officially initiated on December 6, 1983. The sole purpose of the program is to raise money and to disperse this money in the form of scholarships to Luverne High School graduates.

Since December 1983, the Luverne Dollars for Scholars program has been the benefactor of more than 165 perpetual scholarships with  a total endowment of slightly more than $2.9 million.

This school-year, Luverne Dollars for Scholars awarded a total of $111,250 in scholarships to qualifying LHS graduates in the Class of 2009.

Over the last 26 years, Luverne Dollars for Scholars has awarded a total of more than $1.6 million to nearly 1,219 LHS graduates.

The long-term goal of Luverne Dollars for Scholars is to award $4,000 and $8,000 scholarships to LHS graduates, disseminating $2,000 on a yearly basis to assist LHS graduates with their 2- or 4-year post secondary education expenses.

The Class of 2009 was the 26th LHS graduating class to benefit from the Luverne Dollars for Scholars program.

The success of the Luverne Dollars for Scholars program is attributed to many generous LHS graduates who have established perpetual scholarships with the local scholarship program.
