In the 1990s, the Nisswa Women’s Club established an endowment fund with the intention that it would generate enough interest to provide scholarships for nontraditional women students at CLC.
This year, the endowment fund generated three scholarships. In addition, the women’s club holds an annual fundraiser to garner more funds for scholarships for CLC students, high school students and local charities.
