BRAN Scholarships

Each year, Bicycle Ride Across Nebraska (BRAN) gives a scholarship to a student in every host town and a second scholarship to the Best Home Town. Scholarships provide financial support for individuals to help pay for a college degree. BRAN scholarships reward deserving students with assistance to attend higher education.

Congratulations to our past, present, and future scholars!
