Adirondack Community Trust (ACT)

General Information

APPLY FOR A SCHOLARSHIP


What could be more important for the future of the Adirondack region than to educate our children? Scholarship Funds have been created to benefit specific educational institutions or fields of study.  Donors can set up an advisory committee as well as define guidelines for selecting recipients and award use.

The vast majority of ACT's scholarship funds do not accept applications for support, as the decision is made at specific schools often in collaboration with the family.

There are, however, a small number of scholarship funds at ACT to which students can apply for support. Each of these scholarship funds has unique interests, from supporting aspiring journalists to assisting future doctors to return to the region to practice medicine. These scholarship funds use a competitive application process to make decisions, and are listed below under the "Scholarship Applications" link.
