SCHOLARSHIPS The Elwood Area Foundation
currently administers 20 scholarships for organizations, businesses, and
families. The requirements and details
for each scholarship are set out by the group who establishes the
scholarship. Applications can be
obtained from the Elwood Guidance Counselor. In 2018, more than $35,000 in scholarships
was awarded to Elwood area students. Thank you to all those who make these
scholarships available to our area youth. You are helping them achieve their
dreams! A list of scholarship winners can be found in the summer newsletter. STUDENT LOANS Our student loan
program has been operating since 1980. Since that time, EAF has loaned out
more than $450,000 and assisted nearly 150 area college students. The Elwood Area Foundation is proud to
provide this service to area youth. GRANTS The Elwood Area Foundation offers grants for youth
enrichment and community improvement projects. Funding for grants come from Gala proceeds,
as well as donations made outside of the Gala and the interest earned on
Foundation investments. |
