Meanwhile, community members can donate to the scholarship fund year round.
From the Columbia High School Scholarship Fund:
“Growing up, I never thought college was an option. It was something that was always put on the back burner because I never thought I would get there. Especially growing up with a single mom and seeing how hard she worked, which made me realize at an early age that money was tight….So I want to thank you for your donation that’s helping many students in our district. Because of people like you, I can attend Rutgers University and learn more about the ins and outs of the business field. Again, thank you for helping students like me who never thought college was a possibility. I hope someday, in the future, I can do what you do and help impact many young lives – help give them an opportunity they never thought they had.”
