the beginning
Our Founder
The Entrepreneurs’ Scholarship was founded by Charles L. Williams, CEO of Tax2Go, LLC in DeSoto, Texas.
God placed a vision in Mr. Williams heart to use proceeds from Tax2Go LLC and to invite other entrepreneurs to join him in providing scholarships to deserving underprivilege high school students wanting to go to college and current college students to assist them in achieving potential life goals that might otherwise be unobtainable without financial assistance.
Since 2017, we have awarded 132 scholarships to deserving students. Financial need remains a huge barrier to college, so we are increasing our efforts to help. We continue to operate under God’s Plan with the premise of Isaiah 11:6 (“A child shall lead them”).
