Year in Review: Point Roberts Dollars for Scholars

Posted

Thank you, Point Roberts!

As one of Scholarship America’s national network of locally-based, volunteer-driven Dollars for Scholars chapters, our mission is to mobilize our community to ensure education success for our Point Roberts post-secondary students.

Dollars for Scholars chapters like ours help hometown students achieve their educational goals by raising scholarship funds, establishing endowments, providing assistance with college readiness and the financial aid process, and distributing scholarships each year.

During one of the toughest years Point Roberts has ever faced, with the generous support of our partners and supporters, we have achieved the highest award ever of $1,500 per student. We also achieved the highest annual number in our history – we were able to help 17 students in 2022.

It has been an unprecedented year and its challenges have made one thing clear – giving, kindness and support for each other are more crucial than ever.

We sincerely thank our financial partners and the many donations made by our community.

Thank you for your continued support.

The Point Roberts board of directors consists of Brian Calder, Pam Sarkissian, Vicki Robertson and Fern Peltier.
