The Canyons Education Foundation is committed to supporting students in their growth and aspirations — and the number of scholarships the Foundation is offering is growing, too!
The Foundation facilitates five scholarships, including the new Canyons Strong Scholarship for seniors attending a Canyons high school, the Bright Future Scholarship, and the Mont and Kristine Millerberg Scholarship, to name a few.
“We want to provide opportunities for our students to continue to not only better themselves but also leave a positive impact on their community,” says Denise Haycock, Development Officer for the Foundation. “These scholarships can help students looking to achieve their dreams.”
Application windows are open now for these Canyons scholarships:
Canyons Strong Scholarship – Canyons Education Foundation’s newest scholarship seeks to reward a senior from each of Canyons’ high schools, Alta, Brighton, Corner Canyon, Hillcrest, Jordan, and Diamond Ridge/Entrada.
