The George Snow Scholarship Fund

 

What began as a memorial to one philanthropic and devoted man has become a community asset – a family of individuals, corporations, private foundations, and community service organizations who share the belief that education is the key to a better life for the young people we serve.

Providing scholarship funds is easy. Dedicating ourselves to helping each student graduate from college is the focus and challenge of our staff. Beyond receiving scholarships and financial aid, these students become a member of the George Snow Scholarship Fund Family. They will receive our guidance and support well beyond their freshman year, as they start the next phase of their lives. Everything we do is guided by the question “what would we do for our own sons and daughters?” We do what we do for these students with the support of our local communities, and we believe this is paid back with each student achieving their career goals and becoming productive citizens within the community.

In 2022 we celebrate our 40th anniversary of the George Snow Scholarship Fund, and we reflect on our beginnings and our journey over the last four decades. In 1982, our first year, we awarded scholarships to three students, totaling $8,000. We are incredibly proud that in 2021, we awarded over $2.2 million in scholarships and support services to over 234 deserving scholars. We firmly credit the success of this organization to our community partners, donors, and volunteers, like you.
