Scholarship Fundraiser
Over the years, we have hosted several events to help fund $2,000 college scholarships for four young women who demonstrate exceptional volunteerism, academic achievement, and financial need as they pursue a degree at an Ohio college or university. (Visit the Scholarship page for past winners info).
There are several ways you can help support these scholarships.
You may make a tax‑deductible donation of merchandise, services, or gift certificates from your business or organization.
Check back throughout the year to see what exciting events we’ll be hosting to raise funds.
