The Community Foundation of Fayette County (CFFC) offers nearly fifty scholarship opportunities for individuals pursuing post-secondary education. Scholarship applications are now available for the 2023-2024 school year through CFFC’s online scholarship software, which can be accessed from the Scholarships page at www.cffayettepa.org. The deadline to apply is April 30, 2023.
Applicants will complete a “universal” application to determine their eligibility for individual scholarship opportunities, since each has its unique criteria. Once they complete the “universal” application, applicants will see a list of CFFC scholarships they may apply for. Each application will have additional questions and must be submitted individually.
CFFC awards scholarships to graduating high school seniors, current post-secondary students, and adults wishing to continue their education. Some scholarships target a field of study, participation in extracurricular actives, or a specific post-secondary school. Each scholarship opportunity is made possible by donors who created a charitable fund to support local students in this way.
In 2022, CFFC made over 120 scholarship fund awards, amounting to $208,000.
Applicants can read more about CFFC’s scholarship process on the Scholarships page at www.cffayettepa.org. For questions about scholarship applications, please contact Mrs. Lee O’Neil, Scholarship Coordinator, at eoneil@cffayettepa.org.
