FESD Partners with Rotary Club of Lynnwood to Manage Scholarships
LYNNWOOD, WA – The Foundation for Edmonds School District has announced that it will partner with the Rotary Club of Lynnwood and the Lynnwood Rotary Community Foundation for academic scholarships. In 2010, the Martha Lake Community Club generously provided a gift to the Lynnwood Rotary Community Foundation. Multiple vocational, trade school, and academic scholarships will be awarded from this generous gift.
The partnership between the Club and the Foundation for Edmonds School District is an integral part of a larger alliance between the Foundation and multiple individuals and community organizations. The alliance provides thousands of dollars in scholarships each year to deserving Edmonds School District students.
The Club will also be awarding an academic scholarship honoring long-time Rotarian and community philanthropist Bernie Sigler. A tireless advocate for education, and for the residents of our community, this memorial scholarship will honor his legacy of service. Each scholarship will recognize outstanding students in the Edmonds School District who demonstrate a commitment to others through community service. Award amounts will vary each year.
“The Rotary Club of Lynnwood are a shining example of serving our community,” says Deborah Brandi, Foundation for Edmonds School District Executive Director. “We are honored to award these scholarships to deserving students so they can continue their educational journey and help make our world a better place for everyone.”
