Why We Help Students

We invest into students who lead, serve, and help their communities move forward.

Amplify Ambition

We know that hard work and dedication can often beat the resources we have. Our scholarship fills that gap so that students who want to do well can stay on track.

Celebrate Service

Moving is just one of the many things that happen when you make a big move. We honor students who help their communities by being good leaders and doing good deeds. Visit the WellKnown Moving about page page to find out more about our own commitment.
