2014 Scholarship Application Open

2014 Scholarship Guide ImageThe Community Foundation of NCW is now accepting applications for scholarships for students planning to attend college or university in the fall of 2014. Over 80 scholarships are available to high school and college students in Chelan, Douglas, and Okanogan counties. Donors establish scholarships for various reasons, and every scholarship is unique. Some focus on specific programs or extra-curricular activities, while others provide opportunities for students who have the greatest financial need.

The deadline for most scholarships is February 15th, with a few exceptions. A Scholarship Guide listing all the scholarships available, deadlines, criteria, and other important details can be found online at our scholarships page, along with instructions on how to apply. This year, the application will be completed online using an interactive form and emailed to our office. Step-by-step instructions for submission are available in the guide and on the website. The foundation will not be accepting or consider any hard copy or mailed applications.

Scholarship Guides have also been distributed to school across the region. Students can inquire with their counseling office for a hard copy, or contact the foundation at 509-663-7716.

I am currently pursuing a degree in Mechanical Engineering with a minor in Computer Science at Stanford. Since the beginning of my freshman year I have been involved with clubs such as Stanford’s Space Initiative (SSI) and the Society of Latinx Engineers (SOLE). In SSI I built a rocket and launched it.

Aero Methow Rescue Service

GRANT RECIPIENT

Due to being rural, remote, and geographically isolated, we must be prepared to do more than respond to emergencies. We have become a healthcare partner who fills gaps in service. The grant allowed our board the time and ability to work with a Strategic Planner to modify our plan to address those gaps.

GRANT RECIPIENT

The grant provided funds to hire a Housing Justice and Outreach Coordinator to visit rural and underserved areas. Rosie’s bilingual and bicultural skills and experience have increased equity of service. Rosie is building partnerships with local organizations through events such as the Columbia Valley Community Health’s Back to School Drive, as well as posting yard signs.

My father was a migrant agricultural worker who eventually started his own cherry and apple orchard. He told me if I wanted to live a better life, I had to get an education. I plan on starting a career with the Chelan PUD with a passion for renewable energy and in turn give back to my parents and community for supporting my dreams.
