2018 Senior Scholarship Winners

On Monday evening, May 21st, the Clear Fork Valley Foundation held its 26th annual scholarship dinner at the Der Dutchman Restaurant in Bellville. Over 150 students, family members, friends, educators, and scholarship endowment families joined donors and other members of our special community to celebrate the accomplishments of nineteen Clear Fork High School seniors.

Scholarships presented to these students totaled $18,000. The endowed scholarship awards were made to seniors with outstanding academic credentials who met specific requirements. The Clear Fork Valley Foundation also used this opportunity to celebrate their 26th anniversary. The Clear Fork Valley Foundation has continued to grow throughout the years due to the generosity of the Clear Fork community. The foundation continues today, as it has in the past, due to the hard work of an all-volunteer board of trustees.

Over 98% of the Foundation’s funds are used to provide scholarships. The sole purpose of the 501c3 non-profit is to help provide educational opportunities for Clear Fork Valley students and teachers.
