The Community Foundation for Crawford County Raising Money for Come Home Scholarships

Posted by Amy Vaughn on Wed, May 15, 2019

 

Are you tired each year of seeing another class graduate high school and leave Crawford County to further their education, only to never return? Do you want to help reverse this brain drain?

 Join the Foundation and support their newest initiative: the Come Home Scholarship Program. When they began this program in 2017, they became the 1st in Ohio and 4th in the nation to implement this innovative concept. They hope to entice former Crawford Countians who have completed a certificate program or college degree in the last 7 years to apply for a Come Home Scholarship of up to $10,000 towards student debt in return for coming back to Crawford County to live and work.
