Chelsea Education Foundation Awards 45 Scholarships totaling $34,750


Chelsea, MI - Chelsea Education Foundation (CEF) recently provided $34,750 to Chelsea schools for scholarships. Winners were announced on June 4 at the annual Senior Awards Night held at the Chelsea Football Stadium.


Since 2001, over 900 scholarships have been awarded by CEF to students for service to the community and outstanding academic performance.


While many scholarships are geared toward traditional four-year college students and to those entering trade schools, others are designed for non-traditional students or students already enrolled in a course of study rather than a newly-minted graduating senior.


“I am extremely grateful for the CEF scholarship (Doris Schumacher / A Henry Schumacher Memorial Scholarship) I received this year. In the past and present, all of my CEF scholarships have increased my ability to focus on academics and community by lessening the financial burden of college attendance. Simply put, they help a lot,” said Emily Chizek, a 2020 CHS graduate entering her sophomore year at Calvin University, where she is studying public health.
