@maryasefu,
Okay.
People aren't going to just throw money. You need to either be in a specific group (my college gave out scholarships to the most deserving Methodist as the school had started off as Methodist. Wasn't a lot of $$ but there you have it), or show need, or show particular athletic or academic promise. There are exceptions but those are generally the ways that scholarships get awarded.
Now, it's going to be very specific to things like, where you're going to (or planning to go to) school, what you're studying, whether you are male or female, whether you are in any clubs or on any teams, whether you can show need, where you are from (sometimes there are scholarships for Asian students, or people from Woodlawn High School or wherever). Don't overlook places like where your parents work or where you went to High School.
Many, many people want to see deserving students succeed and are willing to help them financially.
HOWEVER, notice the two words in that sentence that should leap out at you:
deserving and
succeed. You're not going to get a scholarship for being cute or for the sole purpose of not wanting to go into debt. People need to know why they should be helping you.
