The Adams County Community Foundation today announced $225,000 in new scholarship awards to students in Adams County and South-Central Pennsylvania. The amount awarded brings the total amount of scholarships granted by the Community Foundation since its founding to more than $2 million. Awards range from $500 to $30,000 each and go to students pursuing higher education.
“Our Scholarship Committee, led by board member Nate Mares, does an outstanding job selecting scholarship winners,” noted Community Foundation President and CEO Ralph Serpe. “They reviewed hundreds of applications from students attending high schools across Adams County. But they also continued their work to eliminate scholarship displacement — when receipt of a private scholarship leads to a reduction in other forms of financial aid. The Community Foundation leads the effort to eliminate the practice in Pennsylvania and across the country.”
