The Slaughter Scholarship Trust is a small, locally focused scholarship fund that predominantly awards undergraduate scholarships to individual students attending regional colleges and universities, especially around South Bend, IN. Grants are modest and often made repeatedly to the same students or to students attending nearby institutions—several grantees are tied to Notre Dame, Saint Mary’s, Grace College and other Indiana schools. The foundation appears primarily donor-directed toward helping individual students with college expenses rather than institutional program funding.

Many small, one‑off or repeat scholarships (typically $800–$2,500) concentrated on individual students and a handful of local colleges; repeating recipients and repeated support for the same institutions indicate a relationship-driven, geographically concentrated giving strategy rather than broad or large institutional grants.
Notable grantees: University of Notre Dame (multiple student awards), Saint Mary's College, Grace College, Indiana University, Rose‑Hulman Institute of Technology
