The Eva Foundation's mission focuses on supporting individual teenage girls by empowering them to overcome limiting circumstances and follow their passions. This is achieved through grants that enable recipients to have experiences that foster growth, creativity, leadership, and independence, echoing the opportunities Eva herself had.
The Eva Gunther Fellowship is a need-based grant program designed to empower young, motivated women by providing them with up to $2,000 to pursue their passions and expand their experiences. It supports various activities under three main categories: Athletic Programs (including cheerleading camp, basketball recruitment tours, etc.), Creative Programs (such as ballet, acting classes, music lessons, etc.), and Experience and Travel Programs (including college tours, service trips, and more). The program aims to extend societal beliefs about girls' roles and abilities, foster artistic excellence, develop leadership skills, and encourage independent thinking.
