We believe in helping committed students get an education.
Washington’s cities and towns want to nurture student leaders who can help their communities thrive. The Center for Quality Communities Scholarship supports students who are actively involved in their communities, schools and/or city government, and want to pursue post-secondary education.
The fund was started by people across the state who are passionate about cultivating tomorrow’s local leaders.
By nominating a student from your community for a Center scholarship, you’re giving motivated students the opportunity to develop leadership skills they can use in their lives and in their communities.
Scholarships
Four $1,000 scholarships will be awarded to graduating Washington high school students who plan to pursue a post-secondary degree in fall 2012. Scholarship funds will be sent directly to the institution. Funds can be used for education expenses and will be deposited directly into a student account.
