Lasting change begins with empowering the next generation. We invest in education, scholarships, and youth programs to amplify young voices and create pathways for future leaders.

In 2015, CLF launched undergraduate scholarships for students in Barbados and has provided them ever since. Now known as the Barbados Scholarship Program, this support covers up to 85% of tuition for students pursuing post-secondary education in areas aligned with CLF’s pillars of work. In 2024, three scholars were selected to pursue studies across some of CLF’s focus areas. The CLF scholars also expressed the desire to return to the Caribbean and work in their fields after graduating.

After a decade as CLF partner, Westbury was upgraded to the highest-ranking hurricane shelter by Barbados' Department of Emergency Management—featuring a new roof, hurricane shutters, disability-accessible facilities, upgraded WASH facilities, increased water storage, and grid-tied solar with battery and generator backup. Students can resume school in a resilient environment even after disasters.
