One can give money to whomever one wants, unless it is a criminal enterprise. It is called FREEDOM Billybob. File an amicus brief.

[Congressman Billybob]

One can give money PERSONALLY to whomever one chooses. But once one sets up a scholarship, it becomes a public trust, and can be judicially corrected if it engages in discrimination. The key case was a large trust set up in Philadelphia, IIRC, more a than a century ago for college scholarships for "white students." In choosing between ending the scholarships, or simply striking the word white, the court chose the latter.

Similar logic could apply here.
