DAWN ANDERSON SCHOLARSHIP

The Dawn Anderson Scholarship was established in honor of Dawn Anderson who passed away in 2017. While her children progressed through the District 103 school system, Dawn followed them, volunteering for any and every school or teacher-based project available. Motivated by her love of children, Dawn volunteered for programs that did not involve her sons and continued volunteering after they left the district. To honor her legacy, the Learning Fund Foundation established the scholarship to recognize a D103 graduating 8th grade student who displays a passion for volunteering and servicing others. This $2,500 award must be used for education at a post-secondary school.

Guidelines for the scholarship are here.

Application requirements:

1. The applicant must be graduating 8th grade from Daniel Wright Junior High School to be eligible for this scholarship. Please review the scholarship guidelines. 
2. Applicant must demonstrate record of volunteering and extracurricular activities and submit application form with all required information. 
3. Applicant must receive a recommendation from teacher.
