College Fund Landscaping, a family-owned lawn care and landscaping company serving North Texas communities, continues its longstanding commitment to education through its annual scholarship initiatives. The program, which draws directly from the company’s founding story, provides financial assistance to local high school seniors and college students pursuing higher education.
Since its establishment in 1996 by Matt Davis, then a Plano Senior High School student, College Fund Landscaping has grown from a small lawn-mowing operation into a full-service provider of professional lawn care and landscaping solutions. Davis started the business to fund his own college education, graduating debt-free through dedication and hard work. That personal experience shaped the company’s mission, embedding community support and educational opportunity into its core operations. Today, the company maintains this tradition by allocating resources to help area students achieve their academic goals.
Each year, College Fund Landscaping conducts a Client Scholarship Raffle open to customers who nominate eligible students. The process invites clients to submit names of high school seniors or currently enrolled college students from the local area. Names are drawn, with 15 winners selected annually. Funds are sent directly to the students’ educational institutions to help reduce tuition costs. This direct approach ensures the support reaches students efficiently and addresses the financial challenges many face in pursuing post-secondary education.
In addition to the raffle, the company contributes an ongoing scholarship to the University of North Texas Business School, where Davis studied and developed his interest in entrepreneurship. This targeted support recognizes the role of business education in building strong community leaders and reflects the company’s roots in the region. These efforts form part of a broader pattern of giving back that also includes an annual food drive benefiting the North Texas Food Bank.
“Every scholarship we give away is a reminder that small businesses can create real impact locally,” said Matt Davis, owner of College Fund Landscaping.
The scholarships align with the company’s broader approach to business, which emphasizes reliability, quality service, and community involvement. College Fund Landscaping provides a range of lawn care and landscaping services, including fertilization, weed control, mowing, tree and shrub care, landscaping installations, and seasonal cleanups. These services help homeowners in Plano, Allen, McKinney, Frisco, and surrounding Collin County and North Texas areas maintain healthy, attractive properties year-round. The company holds TDA and TECQ licenses, maintains ongoing continuing education for its team, and operates with a 100 percent satisfaction guarantee.
Over nearly three decades, College Fund Landscaping has earned recognition for its service quality, including multiple “Best Of” awards and more than 600 online reviews from satisfied customers. Its team focuses on practical solutions for common lawn challenges, such as proper fertilization timing, appropriate mowing practices for local grass types, and effective weed and disease management. This expertise supports the thriving landscapes that contribute to the character of North Texas neighborhoods.
“Our customers become part of the mission. When they support us, they’re helping support future students too,” continued Davis.
The annual scholarship program highlights how businesses rooted in their communities can sustain positive cycles of opportunity. By tying its commercial success to educational support, College Fund Landscaping demonstrates a model where everyday services contribute to long-term community development. Students who receive assistance often express gratitude for the reduction in financial stress, allowing greater focus on their studies and future careers.
As higher education costs continue to rise, programs like these provide tangible assistance to families navigating the expenses of college. The company’s approach avoids one-time gestures in favor of consistent, yearly contributions that build on its history. This sustained effort reinforces the connection between local economic activity and educational access in the Plano and North Texas region.
College Fund Landscaping remains dedicated to both professional lawn and landscaping services and meaningful community contributions. Its scholarship initiatives stand as a practical expression of the values that have guided the company since its founding. Through these programs, the business continues to invest in the next generation while serving the current needs of homeowners across the area.
