On Monday evening, May 16th, the Clear Fork Valley Foundation held its 30th annual scholarship dinner, at the Der Dutchman Restaurant in Bellville. Many family members, friends, educators, and scholarship endowment families joined donors, board members, and other community members to celebrate the accomplishments of thirty-one Clear Fork Valley seniors.
The scholarships presented to these students totaled $25,000. The awards were given to deserving students who most exemplified the specific criteria set for each individual scholarship, representing various qualities such as academic achievement, humanitarianism, specific intended studies in college, outstanding performance in math, history, the arts, etc.
The Clear Fork Valley Foundation continues to grow, thanks to the generosity of the Clear Fork community and the hard work of an all-volunteer board of trustees. The sole purpose of the 501c3 non-profit is to foster education within the school district and to improve the general well-being of the community by supporting our youth.
