APPLICATIONS ARE NOW OPEN UNTIL JANUARY 5, 2027, 5 PM PST!
What we look for in your application:
PASSION: What drives you?
We want to know what you’re passionate about and why it matters to you. Share a meaningful moment that inspired your passion, how you’ve pursued it in the past year, and what you’ve learned along the way.
COMMUNITY: What has shaped you?
The communities we’re part of help shape who we become. Tell us about a community that matters to you and an experience that influenced your perspective, values, or sense of self.
IMPACT: What difference do you want to make?
Big or small, every positive change matters. Share who or what you’ve already helped or hope to help, the difference you’ve made or want to create, and the steps you’re taking or plan to take to get there.
Financial support is just the beginning.
Becoming a Live Más Scholar means joining a community of 3,800+ young people chasing their passions. Think mentors, career connections, resources, and opportunities that have a lasting impact on your future.
Live Más Scholarship Renewal Program
Your passion doesn’t stop at one chapter, and neither does our support. Previous Live Más Scholars can apply to renew their award up to three times.
Meet Siena – A Live Más Scholar
Siena found her passion for firefighting and committed herself to learning everything she could about the field. When she joined her local Fire Explorer program, she was the only girl—but rather than be discouraged, she saw it as an opportunity to lead by example and show other young women that firefighting is a path they can pursue too. In recognition of her determination, leadership, and drive to make a difference, the Taco Bell Foundation awarded Siena a $25,000 Live Más Scholarship.
