Windsor Locks Dollars for Scholars, a program of Scholarship America, is made up of volunteer community members and high school personnel whose mission is to encourage Windsor Locks students to further their education.  Since 2001 we have supported this mission through scholarship awards and financial assistance, and by promoting activities within the Windsor Locks community that help students achieve their educational goals. 

An element that is common to all local Dollars for Scholars chapters is a commitment to community-based fundraising for scholarships to be awarded to local students.  One of the benefits of affiliation with the national organization is access to Scholarship America Collegiate Partners, a program of more than 400 colleges, universities, and post-secondary schools across the United States that agree not to reduce grant aid to students who have been awarded Dollars for Scholars scholarships. Nearly 100 colleges will also match the Dollars for Scholars awards, providing additional funding for scholarship recipients.  Since the foundation has the benefit of 501(c)(3) status, contributions to Windsor Locks Dollars for Scholars or any other local chapter are tax deductible.

You can help by donating, volunteering, or encouraging your students to pursue education beyond high school!
