Many Southeast Kansas high school seniors and current college students will receive support for their education thanks to the 2025 scholarship cycle at the Community Foundation of Southeast Kansas (CFSEK) and its affiliate foundations in Columbus, Fort Scott, and Girard. Scholarship applications became available on January 15th and will be open through March 31st.
CFSEK and its affiliates host 45 scholarship opportunities and have awarded over $700,000 in scholarships since 2008 to hundreds of students from Southeast Kansas. In 2024, scholarships totaled over $160,000 to area students.
“I’m so excited for scholarship season and seeing all of the wonderful things area students are achieving,” said Kara Mishmash, CFSEK Program Coordinator.
Mishmash has prepared a pre-application checklist (available on CFSEK’s website) and is planning to offer workshops and virtual office visits for high school seniors.
“The new workshop opportunities and virtual meetings we’ve implemented will also be a fantastic way to put CFSEK in front of the students to ensure they’re comfortable with our software and confident in their understanding of the questions,” said Mishmash. “Being a small part of their journey is amazing!”
Scholarship applications are available now through March 31st. The online only application is available at SoutheastKansas.org/Scholarship-App. For questions, please contact Mishmash at SoutheastKansas.org/Contact/Kara, or call (620) 231-8897.
