Ideal Applicant
High-school (or recent high-school) students seeking scholarships, or school guidance counselors submitting scholarship nominations on behalf of students, with a preference for applicants connected to Maine.
Good Fit
- • Student applying for a college scholarship or a guidance counselor submitting on a student's behalf.
- • Request is for individual scholarship support in line with child/youth education purposes.
- • Applicant is located in Maine or has a clear local connection (higher probability of award).
- • Application submitted by the written route or via the school counselor as described on the website.
Geography
Observed grants are concentrated in the foundation's home state (about 75% of dollars in 2024) but recipients were located across five states in the latest year, showing a primarily in-state focus with some multi-state reach.
Recipient Variety
Each observed year shows 17 distinct scholarship recipients (all new each year), so the funder supports many individual awardees, but giving is narrowly focused on scholarships to students rather than a wide range of institutional missions.
New Applicants
The foundation publishes application guidance (including direction to school guidance counselors), provides a PO Box and phone contact, and the recipient history shows entirely new awardees each year, indicating a clear path and regular intake of new applicants.
