The Foundation is now accepting scholarship applications. High school seniors who live in Worcester County and seek college tuition assistance for the 2019 - 2020 academic year are encouraged to apply. The application deadline is Monday, March 4, 2019. This is the only time this year that the Foundation will be accepting scholarship applications.

Submitting a single application allows a student to be considered for any of the Foundation's 136 scholarships for which they are eligible. Scholarship awards range in size from $300 to $5,000 and are made to students based on a wide variety of criteria including financial need, area of study, community involvement, high school, and hometown.
