2010 AWARD RECIPIENTS
Over Twenty Years & Still Growing
Education Together Foundation held its first Awards Night in 1988 and provided scholarships totaling $6,663. At our last Awards Night held May 18, 2010 in the Junction City Fire Hall, ETF provided scholarships and awards totaling $48,073.

Community & School Grant Awards
The ETF Community and School Grant Endowment was established in 2002, and had been funded primarily through grants from the Chichester du Pont Foundation, although individuals have contributed to this endowment as well. Grants are awarded by ETF throughout the year to help meet the diverse educational needs of children, teens, adults and senior citizens in the Junction

Dollars for Scholars
A new dimension was added to ETF when we joined Dollars for Scholars. Dollars for Scholars is a nationwide program that for over 50 years has helped train and support organizations like ours. There are over 1,200 chapters nationwide and over 160 in Washington and Oregon. Through Dollars for Scholars we have access to reduced insurance rates, fundraising ideas, changes in laws that might affect us, and a support group educated in non-profit organizations. The best part is the Collegiate Partner Program. Through this program some colleges will not reduce financial aid packages because of any scholarships received from the Education Together Foundation. Over 120 colleges across the country have vowed to match any scholarship funds ETF awards.

 Future Funding
In addition to our fund sponsors who provided scholarships for this year, funds are in place for the future.  We thank our many contributors who support ETF's Endowment, Community Memorial and Community/School Grant Funds, as well as the Unrestricted Fund which finances ETF's operating expenses.
