WHAT IS BUILD A DREAM?

Eligibility is based upon federal income guidelines and is available to Arlington residents only. Due to limited funding, scholarships will be awarded on a first come, first serve basis. This scholarship cannot be combined with any other scholarship.

Visit NaturallyFun.org and complete an application. If funding is still available, you will be contacted to make an appointment to finalize your application including a $5 application fee. Income verification and registration for classes will be required at the time of application approval. Two activities will be awarded per child. To save time, upload your required documents with your online application!
