“
There are far too many students in our county whose incredible potential is limited by the financial resources available to them. The work of the Community Foundation and the scholarship programs it supports are essential to helping our youth forge brighter futures for themselves and their families.

“
Because of your donation, college is now a possibility. I will go into college more confident about my financial situation and I promise to make the most of my college years and do everything it takes to be successful and not let my scholarship money be used in vain. I can't express my gratitude enough.
