Scholarship Foundation of Indian River County

Scholarship Foundation of Indian River County Scholarship Foundation of IRC awards scholarships to Indian River County students with the ability and desire to pursue a post-secondary education.

Dan Richardson and members of the Vero Beach Rotary Club gave birth to the concept of a locally-funded scholarship organization which led to partnering with Scholarship America's Dollars for Scholars. Through hard work, dedication and, most importantly, a very generous community, our organization grew into one of the largest Dollars for Scholars' chapters in the country, supporting over 150 studen

ts each year. Our volunteer Board of Directors raises our funds, sets our policies, reviews scholarship applications and interviews student applicants and their families. Scholarships range from $2,000 to $20,000. They are intended to help students close the gap between the cost of college and the funds available through other sources of financial aid and their family resources. From 1965-2013, our organization fulfilled the mission of helping local students realize their dream of going to college by awarding 9.7MM to accomplished and deserving IRC students. In 2013, we recommitted to serve our local community and changed our name to Scholarship Foundation of Indian River County due to changes made in our parent organization that we felt would take away from our resources. Though we changed our name, everything else remained the same -- our vision and mission, our board of directors, our program, our dedicated volunteers and our commitment to serve the students of IRC.

Reminder!! The seating is limited, but we do still have some room left! I believe this will be a very interesting topic and a great evening all around.

We very much appreciate everyone who decides to attend this event as all funds raised will go directly towards scholarships for the many students who have applied and have begun the interview process with us in the hopes of receiving assistance as they go to college this coming fall.
We look forward to seeing you on the 29th of this month! Please contact our office to get your name on the list for this event.
