Scholarship Awards
On Wednesday, Aug 14th, Rotarian Robin Steele, will highlight the college scholarships our club awarded this past spring. This financial aid, generally about $25,000 in total, goes to graduating seniors from local Poudre School District high schools. As Scholarship Committee Chair, Robin will share a short overview of the scholarships, the criteria for their grant, and the selection process. She will then briefly introduce each of the recipients for the coming school year, who have been invited to attend our meeting with a guest. Robin will share information that each of the students has prepared for this program. It should be very heartwarming for the members, and memorable for the students! READ MORE...
