WABASH COUNTY, Ind. – This year, the Community Foundation is honored to have distributed roughly 300 scholarships totaling nearly $240,000 to Wabash County high school seniors and students of several colleges, universities, and seminaries. Scholarships support students entering or currently studying at traditional colleges and universities, as well as students pursuing certifications from vocational training schools.
These scholarships are the county’s way of expressing deep confidence in young people and offering opportunities to pursue a degree or training with less financial burden. Without the selfless generosity of countless donors, these scholarships would not be possible.
The Community Foundation congratulates the class of 2017 on their selection for scholarship awards and wishes all Wabash County graduates all the best in their future endeavors.
