The Maine Community Foundation offers more than 650 scholarships to support students pursuing studies in music, journalism, teaching, horticulture, technology, the arts and other fields. The scholarships are available for students who attend secondary, post-secondary and graduate schools, as well as nontraditional programs.
A complete listing of scholarships available for the upcoming school year is online at the Maine Community Foundation website, mainecf.org.
MaineCF’s scholarship funds are established for a variety of reasons, from honoring a family member to carrying on the tradition of “giving back” that helped an individual through college.
To establish a scholarship fund at the community foundation, email Liz Fickett, scholarship funds manager, at [email protected].
Comments are not available on this story. Read more about why we allow commenting on some stories and not on others.
We believe it's important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It's a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others.
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
You can read more here about our commenting policy and terms of use. More information is also found on our FAQs.
