Serving United Methodist Students
GBHEM Scholarships offers financial aid to United Methodist students pursuing undergraduate and graduate degrees. Every year, an average of $4.5 million is awarded to help students in the United States and abroad pursue their dreams through higher education. With this financial aid, GBHEM is opening pathways for students of all backgrounds to earn their degrees and serve as the next generation of leaders for the church and the world.

Where Does the Money Come From?
Funding for scholarships is made possible through the generosity of our fellow United Methodists and through decades of sound financial stewardship by our agency. Financial support for all GBHEM and scholarships comes from five primary sources:
22% from wills and annuities
13% from United Methodist Special Sundays
1% from online gifts.
1% from fiduciary income
