ACADEMIC SCHOLARSHIPS

The Community Foundation’s Scholarship Program opens doors of opportunity for individuals of all ages. The Community Foundation links donors with financial resources to individuals with potential for future achievement.

A scholarship is more than a financial award- it is the key that unlocks the future for our youth by building their confidence. They are often created in honor or in memory of a loved one and exemplify the goals and values of that person.  Many recipients write that they deeply appreciate the faith this shows in their abilities.
