🎓 D9 Foundation Scholarship (General Scholarship Fund)
Any donation is welcome
This scholarship is funded primarily through donations of any amount from our community members in general contributions and our annual Scholarship Dessert. Donations are also accepted throughout the year, many as memorials. Recipients are determined based on their GPA and SAT scores with a ranked index of those values.
The award dollar amount and the number of awards are determined by the District 9 Community Scholarship Fund Committee after their fund-raising event each year. The value and number of awards depend on the dollars raised and interest earned on endowment funds. They may elect to direct dollars to other than the stated selection criteria by a majority vote of the committee.
Student Award: $500 – $1000. The number of awards is dependent upon the number of available funds from the D-9 Foundation
