Donors Work to Expand Opportunities for Aid Through New Awards, Initiatives<\/i><\/h2>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>WATERTOWN \u2014 <\/b>The Northern New York Community Foundation, in partnership with donors, has awarded 1,157 scholarships this year totaling $1.56 million to help 743 students pursue their post-secondary educational goals. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>Students awarded support are pursuing a wide range of post-secondary educational studies, including trade, technical, vocational, and two- and four-year college programs. The average award this year is $2,100 per student. In many cases, students may receive more than one award from the Community Foundation.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>Thanks to the generosity of hundreds of donors who continue to make gifts that support Community Foundation scholarships, opportunities for students this year have grown through the establishment of new awards. In the past 18 months, donors have created 44 new scholarships at the Community Foundation.<\/span><\/p>\n

\\\"\\\"<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>\u201cScholarships remain one of the most significant ways our donors invest in the people of Northern New York and help strengthen the future of our communities. In addition to the many opportunities that have been in place for years, several new funds have been established to support a wider range of educational pursuits,\u201d said Rande S. Richardson<\/b>, Community Foundation executive director.\u00a0 <\/span>\u201cAn emerging trend we are seeing is more interest in assisting those following trade and technical career paths as well students who may not be eligible for other types of financial aid.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>Most of the scholarships awarded will support students from 37 schools in Jefferson, Lewis, and St. Lawrence counties. Forty-two students from schools outside the tri-county region received scholarships the Community Foundation administers. In most cases, these awards were established by local donors who maintain strong ties to specific out-of-area schools.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>Eight scholarships were also awarded to Next Step Education Program<\/b> students, which includes those who may be returning to post-secondary studies after a break from school or older adults, pursuing college, vocational, or technical education. Through its partnership with the 10th Mountain Division Association<\/b>, the Community Foundation facilitated 30 scholarships to students with family ties to the U.S. military. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>The Community Foundation also partners with the Herring College Memorial Trust<\/b> to award scholarships to students pursuing studies in science, technology, engineering, mathematics, and related fields. In 2014, the Thousand Islands Foundation<\/b> became a component fund of the Community Foundation, which now helps to administer scholarships awarded to graduates of Alexandria, LaFargeville, Lyme, and Thousand Islands high schools on its behalf.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>Additionally, the Foundation administers the Jefferson-Can Community Scholars Program<\/b> in partnership with the Jefferson Community College Foundation and alumnus Stephen Can<\/b>. The Jefferson-Can Community Scholars Program awards Jefferson and Lewis County high school seniors who are in the top 15 percent of their graduating class a merit-based scholarship for the first two semesters of study at Jefferson Community College. This year, 35 students are Jefferson-Can Community Scholars.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>The Community Foundation awards hundreds of scholarships annually, made possible through the philanthropic spirit of groups and individuals from across Northern New York.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>Scholarships are popular choices for many as a preferred method of charitable giving and are as varied as the individuals and groups that create them. Criteria for many scholarships the Community Foundation stewards include geography, major of study, college or university attended, student achievements and much more. Several scholarships may also serve as a tribute to loved ones. Most important, each scholarship is a gift that supports the education of local students, helping them to pursue their academic goals.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>The Community Foundation also partners with 26 school districts across the region to steward scholarship funds and awards established in partnership with donors and schools.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>Additionally, the Foundation partners with 15 school districts to steward educational foundations. In recent years, many donors have expressed interest in supporting their favorite local school in broad or more directed ways, for things other than scholarships. Through school educational foundations, alumni, parents, teachers, retirees, and others for whom their school holds special meaning can leave a legacy.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0 <\/span>A complete list of available scholarships and the applications may be found at nnycf.org\/new\/scholarships<\/b><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n
