Announcement from the Point Roberts Dollars For Scholars Board of Directors

After more than 10 years of dedicated service, the current Board of Directors of Point Roberts Dollars For Scholars has made the difficult decision to step down following the completion of this year's scholarship program.

Serving our community and helping local students pursue their educational dreams has been an incredible privilege. We are extremely proud of what has been accomplished over the past decade. Through the generosity of our donors, sponsors, volunteers, and community members, we have awarded more than $200,000 in scholarships to Point Roberts students. We are especially proud that every dollar raised for scholarships has gone directly to the students, helping them continue their education at colleges, universities, trade schools, and other post-secondary programs.

The success of Point Roberts Dollars For Scholars has only been possible because of the unwavering support of our community. We extend our sincere gratitude to everyone who has donated, volunteered, attended fundraising events, and encouraged our students throughout the years.

While Scholarship America has extended our current Affiliation Agreement through December 31, 2027, allowing chapters to continue operating under the current model while it develops its future direction, the continuation of Point Roberts Dollars For Scholars depends on a new group of volunteers stepping forward to serve as the Board of Directors.

At this time, there are no volunteer replacements committed to taking over the organization. Without a new board, the Point Roberts Dollars For Scholars will be concluded.

Finding no members of our community who are passionate about supporting local students willing to take over we will be wrapping up the operation and donating the remaining funds to our local school community.

Thank you to everyone who has supported Point Roberts Dollars For Scholars over the years. It has been an honor to serve our community.
