Support a Current Scholarship Fund
Support Local Students
Scholarships are based on merit, need, area of study, or other criteria
Each year, we read so many inspiring scholarship applications but we never have enough money to award. Your donation to the community scholarship fund helps another student pursue their dreams through college or vocational school.
2022 highlights:
- $1,351,917 awarded
- 121 recipients
A seamless process
From 2017-2021, TTCF donors grew our scholarship funds from $113,00 to $1,038,000!
In 2017, we purchased software that replaced written applications for each independent scholarship and set up an online common application process free of charge to all participating local scholarship providers. This streamlined the process for local students by allowing them to apply for multiple scholarships — managed by TTCF and other local groups — through a single application. We provide the software, manage the application process, set up the individual
committees and assign out the eligible applications to each reviewer. While each scholarship committee runs its own independent review and decision process, the committees collaborate to ensure funds are distributed equitably among applicants.

Your neighbors and friends have already opened over 100 scholarships. In 2021, they awarded over $1.3 million to 121 graduating high school seniors.
Behind every scholarship, there’s a story and intention. That could be honoring a loved one, encouraging those in a specific discipline, or giving a hand up to a worthy student. Learn more below.
