Why We Started This

At Window Wolf, we believe that the best businesses are built by people who aren't afraid to get their hands dirty. We know that local colleges are full of talented, skilled individuals with great ideas but limited resources.

We don't just want to hand out a check; we want to ignite a career. We created this scholarship to challenge students to look past the classroom and apply their skills to the real world. Whether you are a tradesperson, a creative, or a tech enthusiast, we want to see how you plan to monetize your passion.

The Grand Prize Package.

We provide the capital, the coaching, and the credibility to launch your career.
