Community Foundation<br />
Offers Scholarship and<br />
Loan Opportunities<br />
The fall season is a great time for students to begin researching<br />
scholarship opportunities that will help them reach their<br />
educational goals. Shasta Regional Community Foundation<br />
is an excellent resource, managing many scholarship funds awarded to<br />
graduating high school seniors as well as those students already enrolled<br />
in undergraduate programs. Some of these scholarships were started by<br />
families or individuals; others by businesses or organizations.<br />
The Community Foundation distributed 195 awards totaling $272,300<br />
for the <strong>2019</strong>-2020 academic year. These scholarships and low-interest<br />
loans help to fund a recipient's trade school, community college, university<br />
or medical school education. Award criteria may be based on community<br />
service, grades, financial need, extra-curricular activities and other donorspecified<br />
qualifications. Each opportunity and its online application are on<br />
the Community Foundation’s website at www.shastarcf.org/scholarships.<br />
Are you planning to major in agricultural studies with a special emphasis<br />
on the livestock industry? Check out the Andy Peek Livestock Endowed<br />
Scholarship Fund, established by the Red Bluff Bull and Gelding<br />
Sale in honor and memory of this past chairman of the Shasta District<br />
Fair Board in California and 2007 Tehama County Cattleman of the Year.<br />
The annual application window for this scholarship is <strong>September</strong> through<br />
December.<br />
Morgan<br />
Sometimes favorite subjects in school or hobbies point the<br />
way to a successful scholarship application for post-secondary<br />
education. For example, Morgan took part in the fire technology<br />
class offered at Foothill High School. Through this experience,<br />
she became a certified firefighter while gaining other basic skills<br />
that have helped her along the way. She enjoys hunting, fishing,<br />
running and anything outdoors, leading her to seek a bachelor’s<br />
degree in ecology and pursue a career in prescribed burning with<br />
a wildlife conservation group.<br />
Or consider Caden, whose favorite school subjects were<br />
math, computer science, biology, physics, environmental science<br />
while participating in a robotics club and playing basketball. His<br />
goal is to become a computer programmer/engineer.<br />
