Ideal Applicant
A high‑school senior from the foundation's local county pursuing any form of post‑secondary education who can supply the required form, transcript and SAT scores and meet the stated deadline.
Good Fit
- • Applicant is a high‑school senior from the county specified in the restrictions.
- • Can submit the completed application form, a handwritten ≤300‑word letter about college plans, SAT scores, and a four‑year transcript.
- • Applies by the stated annual deadline (e.g., June 10).
- • Seeks individual tuition assistance rather than program or organizational support.
Geography
Giving is tightly concentrated in the foundation's home state (about 96%), with explicit eligibility restricted to high‑school seniors from a specific county; only a single small out‑of‑state share (~4%) appears in the record.
Recipient Variety
Each year the foundation funded many distinct individual recipients (approximately 30, 32, then 35 grants), showing a broad count of independent awardees even though all grants are tuition awards to students rather than diverse institution types.
New Applicants
The foundation publishes clear application requirements, a submission address and deadline, and the data show regular turnover (13 new recipients in the latest year and returning awardees as well), so unfamiliar eligible students appear able to enter the cohort.
