Edison
Foundation Supports Student Scholarships
The Edison Foundation presented Edison State Community College with a
check for $101,325 to support student scholarships. These funds are a
percentage of the Foundation's asset pool, which continues to grow
thanks to the financial support of the surrounding community.
Scholarships are administered by the Edison Foundation and are
typically bestowed or endowed by individuals, corporate partners, and
civic organizations to support nearly 100 students annually.
"Dollars invested in students are dollars invested in preparing a
skilled workforce," said Rick Hanes, Vice President of Business and
Community Partnerships. "It is through scholarship opportunities that
the Edison Foundation helps bridge the gap between a student's dreams
and their reality. We want to see students reach their goals while
being left with as little financial burden as possible."
It is the mission of the Edison Foundation to assist Edison State
Community College in meeting its educational and community service
goals. The Foundation accomplishes this through the identification,
cultivation, and solicitation of corporate, foundation and individual
donors, and by communicating the goals and needs of the college to the
communities of Darke, Miami and Shelby counties.
