Our local Dollars for Scholars chapter was established in 2004.  In 2010 our chapter started actively fundraising which resulted in $3750 dispersed among 15 graduates of the Class of 2011 who met the chapter qualifications. As our fund raising efforts increased we were able to give $156,150 to members of the class of 2021. This is due to the generosity of community members, alumni, businesses, as well as funds donated from estates and memorials. Our chapter has awarded over $2,000,000 to students in our community to be used to further their education. 

Across the nation, Scholarship America's programs -- including Dollars for Scholars -- have given out $2.5 billion to nearly 2 million students since our founding 50 years ago.
