Scholarships

Scholarships for Santa Cruz County high school and college students
Students wanting to continue their higher education can get help from scholarships at the Community Foundation.

We believe strong communities are built on strong minds.

Donors have established scholarship funds for local students at the Community Foundation. We have nine academic scholarships and one wilderness adventure award for Santa Cruz County students.

Since 1988, we have awarded more than $644,000 in scholarships and awards to 250 students in Santa Cruz County.
