Bucks County Foundation has opened applications for over 60 scholarships, available to high school seniors pursuing college or trade school education, writes Emily Neil for the WHYY.
“We’re part of recognizing such a range of students in Bucks County for the true talent that they are, and supporting their future endeavors,” said Mandy Mundy, executive director of Bucks County Foundation.
The community foundation and public charity has been offering grants and scholarships since it was established 46 years ago.
To be considered for one of the scholarships, students can fill out an online form.
The majority of scholarships are open strictly to Bucks County students, but a few are also available to graduates in neighboring school districts.
“We always suggest anybody who is in the Bucks County or surrounding area, look at our website for the scholarship opportunities so that the students or family doesn’t miss out on financial aid that may be available for them,” said Mundy.
The available scholarships total nearly $400,000. While some of the awards consider academic performance and financial need, others are donor-specific, recognizing achievements in choir, band, theater, and sports.
