President’s Project 2023-25

Chairman: Terri Taylor, territdt@gmail.com

Building the CGCI Scholarship Fund

The purpose is to raise funds to increase the scholarship dollar amount awarded per recipient and/or to increase the number of scholarships awarded beginning in 2024. The cost of attending a four-year college full time, including tuition, fees, and room and board has increased 180% annually since 1978. CGCI has more scholarship applications from well-qualified and worthy students than funding available for the scholarship program. The project will add to the Scholarship Donations/Life Membership fund (Line Code 31513) and correct the imbalance between the growing need and CGCI’s ability to meet the need.
