Rosary Graduates earn Community Foundation Scholarships

Eight graduating seniors and four recent Rosary graduates were awarded scholarships from the Community Foundation of the Fox River Valley this month. 

The Community Foundation Scholarship Program consists of over 200 separate scholarship funds created by generous individuals, businesses, and organizations who establish specific criteria for the administration of their scholarships. Applications are reviewed by a volunteer Scholarship Committee comprised of community members. Scholarships totaling over $2.3 million for use during the next four years were recently awarded to 450 area students.
