NEW YORK, NY — May 21, 2024 — Global Atlantic Financial Group (“Global Atlantic”), a leading insurance company meeting the retirement and life insurance needs of individuals and institutions, today announced the launch of the Global Atlantic Scholarship Program.

For the inaugural year of the program, Global Atlantic will award 10 one-time scholarships of $5,000 each to students entering their sophomore year at a four-year college or university in the United States.

This program is in line with several other scholarship initiatives Global Atlantic has launched and continues to support.”

It has the power to break down barriers, propel dreams, and make a meaningful difference in the world around us,” said Ashanti Osbourne, Head of DE&I for Global Atlantic. “As stewards of corporate citizenship and believers in inclusion, we feel providing financial support is a meaningful way to empower the talent of the future.”
