LIVERPOOL — Think of “Cash for College” as a month of Giving Tuesdays — an opportunity to donate whatever you can to Liverpool Dollars for Scholars, the volunteer community group that annually awards more than 150 scholarships worth over $120,000 to graduating Liverpool High School students.
Dollars for Scholars relies on generous donations from individuals, school/community organizations, and businesses to help LHS graduates continue their education at two and four year colleges, technical institutes, hospital schools of nursing and other health related fields, trade schools, adult BOCES programs, and apprenticeships. Scholarships range in value from $500 to $2,000.
The Liverpool community continues to support our efforts to show LHS graduates that we believe in them and their quest for higher education. We are grateful for that ongoing commitment, especially during challenging economic times and rising college costs.
Many of our scholarships are open to all applicants while others have specific criteria that include a particular major or career; attendance at a specific elementary or middle school; or involvement in activities such as music, dance, theatre, community service, athletics, art. The online application process will begin in early 2023. All LHS seniors bound for higher education will be encouraged to apply.
Please contribute to our “Cash for College” campaign, which runs from Nov. 1 to Dec. 1. Help us achieve our goal of a scholarship for every LHS graduate who plans to pursue education beyond high school. Donations of all amounts are greatly appreciated. Give what you can to our worthwhile cause! Thank you.
