Joe and Dorothy Scarlett are strong believers in the power of education to transform lives. With the help of their children, they put this belief into action by establishing the Scarlett Family Foundation in 2005 to provide merit and need-based college scholarships to Middle Tennessee students pursuing business degrees. Since then, the Foundation has expanded its mission. In 2008, the Foundation added grant-making, partnering with non-profit organizations to help all Middle Tennessee students received a high-quality education. Today, these grants align with four key initiatives— college and career readiness, principal and teacher leadership, high-quality schools, and advocacy. In 2015, the Foundation expanded the scholarship program to include STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) majors. Since 2006, the Scarlett Family Foundation had awarded over $19M in college scholarships, helping more than 700 students pursue higher education degrees. These students are attending public and private colleges and universities throughout the United States and represent 148 high schools in 37 counties across Middle Tennessee.
