Continental Envelope Scholarship Fund

Established 2022

 

In 2022, the Continental Envelope Scholarship Fund was established within the Community Foundation of the Fox River Valley to provide scholarships for education.

Scholarships from this fund are awarded in recognition of scholastic achievement, participation in school activities, and are need-based.

These awards are reserved for current non-exempt Continental Envelope employees, their children, or grandchildren who will be attending an accredited post-high school institution. This includes trade school, community college, or a four-year college.

The donors are encouraged that through this commitment, they will help deserving students attain their educational goals, meet their professional objectives, and succeed in their chosen fields.

As a first-generation college student from a low-income family, I was worried about how I was going to pay for books and supplies. This scholarship will allow me to focus more on my studies instead of worrying about how to afford college. I am working to not only create opportunities for myself but to motivate future generations. Thank you so much for helping me along this journey!

Thank you very much for supporting my college education for these four years. I will never be able to repay you for the opportunity that this scholarship has given to me.

There’s no question in my mind that the scholarship I received opened up possibilities.

…you can always start small, even $25 can make a difference. Remember we can’t take our money with us. Even if it’s just your gift of time. Volunteer and get involved.

A community foundation is a donor-driven organization that helps donors custom-design funds that reflect their charitable interests. Through the years, grants from these funds have made a significant impact on our local communities.

We chose the Community Foundation because of its reputation. It’s well known, established and we can trust them to do the job for us.
