We Got the Fund's Official Welcome Letter

We are pleased to say that we received our official welcome letter for the Barbara Neu Memorial Scholarship from the Sacramento Region Community Foundation, on behalf of the Yolo Community Foundation. It feels more like we are official now. 

But as the letter notes:  

“If the endowment is fully funded this year, there should be an ‘available to spend’ amount in 2017. And, of course, we still need to develop the selection criteria and awards process.”

Accordingly, we still need your help:

  1. To ensure the Barbara Neu Memorial Scholarship Fund becomes fully funded this year so we can start offering scholarships in 2017
  2. To help us develop the selection criteria and application process for the scholarship award(s) - this includes a means to ensure that applicants meet the criteria and a way to keep in contact with Fairfield students/alumni, their parents and others supporting Fairfield School to make sure that those eligible to apply for the scholarship are aware of the opportunity at the appropriate time
  3. To help us lay out the process to award these scholarships and promote the award recipients so that the fund can continue to serve its purpose going forward.
