The Hull Gay Pride Scholarship is awarded every year to a graduating high school senior in Hull, MA. The scholarship is awarded to students that “embody and further the values of Hull Pride: diversity and inclusion.” In the past, we have awarded scholarships to multiple graduates who meet these criteria.

"I believe diversity and inclusion are important because every member of a community should feel welcome in who they truly are as an individual. It is our duty as a community to ensure that no one feels like they are on the outside looking in, from the schools to our broader community in general. "
Bianca Foresta, 2021 Hull Pride Scholarship awardee
“Diversity and inclusion are important to me because it allows everyone to have a voice. Being accepting of all people, no matter what your beliefs, could make a tremendous impact on someone’s life. If I can make a difference just by being kind and inclusive, then I will have done my part in the world.”
