FEI : Financial Executives International - Houston Chapter
 FEI Scholarship Foundation

Mission Statement

Our mission is to further the objectives and ethics of the Financial Executives International by supporting higher education and training in the fields of finance and accounting.

More specifically, this will be achieved by providing non-discriminatory scholarship funds to needy and deserving students attending accredited colleges and universities in the Greater Houston/Galveston area in conjunction with the FEI-Houston Chapter Academic Honors Day.

By linking the award of financial support to students with their exposure to real-world experiences presented as part of FEI’s Academic Honors Day, we can better personalize the educational experience, with a focus to encourage ethical business conduct, and the pursuit of finance and accounting as valid career choices.

 

Long-Range Goal

Our goal is to creat an endowment with annual income sufficient to fund the scholarship program on a continuing basis.

The FEI Scholarship Foundation is a 501(c)(3) Charity.
