THE ARLINGTON COMMUNITY FOUNDATION HAS A WELL-ESTABLISHED SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM THAT MATCHES APPROXIMATELY 200 STUDENTS WITH AWARDS EACH YEAR. GENEROUS INDIVIDUALS, FAMILIES, COMPANIES AND ORGANIZATIONS FUND THE SCHOLARSHIPS, MANY OF WHICH HAVE THEIR OWN UNIQUE ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA. INDIVIDUALS, FAMILIES AND BUSINESSES MAY CHOOSE TO ESTABLISH A NAMED SCHOLARSHIP THAT HONORS A LOVED ONE, AN EMPLOYEE OR A COMMUNITY MEMBER. THE DONOR ESTABLISHES THE CRITERIA FOR THE SCHOLARSHIP AND THE FOUNDATION'S SCHOLARSHIP COMMITTEE MANAGES THE SELECTION PROCESS FROM A BROAD AND DIVERSE CANDIDATE POOL. CRITERIA CAN BE BASED ON ATHLETIC SKILLS, ACADEMIC GRADES OR COMMUNITY SERVICE. OTHERS CONTRIBUTE TO A GENERAL POOL OF SCHOLARSHIP DOLLARS THROUGH OUR COMMUNITY SCHOLARSHIP FUND WHICH IS BROADLY RESPONSIVE TO STUDENTS IN NEED BASED ON THEIR APPLICATIONS.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJul 1, 2022 – Jun 30, 2023Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$548.8KProgram 1 [2024]
