We live in a world where students are often told “no” before they ever hear a “yes.” But that one yes—the right opportunity—can change everything. That’s the philosophy behind the Mark Belter Scholarship, designed to uplift students who need that one open door.
Whether you’re an athlete, an artist, or an aspiring entrepreneur from North Ridgeville OH, this scholarship is about believing in your future—even if you’ve stumbled in the past.
Mark Belter’s life is a lesson in perseverance. From challenges to championships, his motivational message is clear: what matters most is what you do next.
This scholarship supports second chances, and it backs students who have shown resilience, self-reflection, and the readiness to rise. If your academic or athletic journey hasn’t been perfect, that’s okay. You’re exactly the kind of applicant this program was built to support.
Because when someone believes in you, anything is possible.
