The Community Foundation of the Rappahannock River Region will award more than $180,000 in scholarships to area high school graduates this spring. Seniors are invited to apply now through the foundation’s online application portal at www.cfrrr.org/apply/scholarships/. Applications must be submitted on or before 5 PM on February 26, 2025. 

 

The Community Foundation administers more than 50 different scholarship funds on behalf of generous people in our community. We believe that investing in education for area young people is a powerful investment in our community’s future. 

 

Scholarship opportunities are available to local high school seniors that plan to attend a 4-year or 2-year university or college, vocational school or career technical school. Students from Caroline, Fredericksburg, King George, Spotsylvania, and Stafford may apply. Each scholarship has different eligibility criteria: some support a specific county or school, some are for athletes or musicians, and others are for students in need or pursuing a particular field of study. The online application system helps students navigate the diverse opportunities. 

 

Students may apply for multiple scholarships. For questions regarding The Community Foundation’s scholarship opportunities, please contact [email protected].
