Scholarship funds are also available to support continued educational opportunities for worthy students.
The Foundation is dedicated to improving the quality of life in the Ottawa County area through collaborative leadership, responsible grantmaking and development of philanthropic giving. The Foundation manages donor designated funds, scholarships, field of interest and designated funds.
