The Foundation was honored to support students in Del Norte, Humboldt, Trinity and Curry counties with over 500 scholarships totaling over $916,000 for the 24-25 academic year, made possible through the generous contributions of donors.
This year, 63% of scholarship recipients were First Generation college students, with scholarships awarded averaging just over $2,000. In total, the Foundation received 6,300 applications from 1,300 unique applicants. The scholarships, both one-time and multi-year, support graduating high school seniors, current undergraduate, graduate, and vocational students seeking support for their post-secondary education.
