Project Description Country: USA Location: FountainHills, AZ Total Budget: $5,000 Area of Focus: Basic education and literacy Activity Type: Education: Scholarship Summary: This project will fund 2 - 3 Career and Technical Education scholarships for one semester. Over the past 2 years, the Rotary Club of Fountain Hills has initiated a scholarship program specifically directed toward Fountain Hills residents and employees who work here. The program provides financial support for students who attend vocational institutions for one or two years. Students who enter the program receive financial support for tuition, books, uniforms, lab supplies, etc. If the student maintains good grades, the funding continues to graduation. Currently, there are 9 students in the program. Three just graduated in December. This Grant will assist by augmenting our ability to continue the program.
