"The meaning of life is to find your gift.
The purpose of life is to give it away."
- Pablo Picasso
I remember my first day at college. It was full of little moments of uncertainty: will my lecture notes be good enough, who will I sit by, will I understand my professor?
This fall, 25 of our Skagit students will begin their first days, first terms, and first years of adulthood, learning, and transformation. These young men and women will face similar challenges and experiences as their peers, and they will also have something else: a scholarship from Skagit Community Foundation donors.
Through your generosity, we are sending 25 local students to college this fall with the message, "We believe in you, and we support you."
Scholarships are long-term financial relief and they bring peace of mind. These awards are also a source of pride and a sense of achievement as they begin their journey to realize their dreams.
Thank you for working with us to provide these students' scholarships along with the knowledge that generous people in their community care about them and their future.
- Maddy, Executive Director
