Applications open for Space to Succeed $5,000 scholarships

Mississippi college students have until Nov. 30 to apply for the Fall 2026 Space to Succeed Scholarship from The Storage Center, which operates six facilities in the state across the Jackson metro and the Gulf Coast. Three students nationwide will each receive a $5,000 award in recognition of measurable, self-initiated community leadership. Now in its fourth cycle, the Space to Succeed Scholarship has granted $45,000 to nine students since launching in spring 2025. Past recipients include a Texas A&M student who has collected more than 9,500 coats for families in need, an LSU Eunice nursing student and mother of four, and a University of Alabama in Huntsville student whose stroke-awareness initiative has raised more than $10,000 and helped save six lives. The Spring 2026 cycle drew more than 2,000 applications from across the country.
