CFWC Horizon of Hope Scholarship

The Horizons of Hope Fund was established to recognize and encourage single parents who have returned to school. Created to help lighten the load, Horizons of Hope assistance can be used for tuition expenses, books, supplies, transportation, childcare, or other living expenses. This scholarship is administered by the Community Foundation of Whitley County.

• are residents of Whitley County, Indiana
