Northwest Indiana Business News LogoSOUTH LAKE COUNTY – The Crown Point Community Foundation is accepting online scholarship applications for students who are looking to continue their education.

“Last year the CPCF awarded 99 scholarships totaling over $265,000 in student scholarship grants,” said Mary Nielsen, Crown Point Community Foundation President. “This is one of our largest initiatives every year. We encourage students to apply for scholarships administered by the Foundation. A complete listing of scholarships can be found on our website.”

The 2018 scholarship application must be submitted online. The application can be found on the CPCF website, www.thecpcf.org or on the Crown Point Community Foundation’s Facebook page. The deadline for applying is Friday, March 16, 2018 at 10:30 p.m. (CST).

The CPCF is also announcing the creation of a new scholarship this year. The Alec Matalin Memorial “Dope” Scholarship Fund was created in memory of Alec Matalin, a Crown Point High School student who passed away from a sudden illness.

In addition to student scholarships, the CPCF also offers adult scholarships. Applications for adult scholarships will be available in May.

The Crown Point Community Foundation connects people who care to causes that matter. Since 1990, we have served the citizens of Crown Point and South Lake County through a range of charitable and civic activities, while helping individual donors achieve their philanthropic goals. As a public charitable organization, the CPCF is dedicated to building permanently endowed funds. The Crown Point Community Foundation will help to positively shape the future of the community and act as a facilitator of community good.
