Eligibility

Ralph and Clara Betcher Scholarship, with an application deadline in June, offers numerous awards that vary in amount. Restricted to those with financial need.

Description

Ralph (Jake) and Clara Betcher lived and farmed in the Withrow area. They didn't have a chance for an education but were always supportive of education for their children. The Betchers were the inspiration for establishing this scholarship. The committee's intention is that the Ralph and Clara Betcher Scholarship will support current high school senior students or recent graduates from Waterville and Mansfield High Schools in their studies at vocational, technical, or trade schools or at a community college studying a trade or skill. Ideally this will make it possible for a student with financial needs to be able to receive training which will help them to be better employed. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Community Foundation of North Central Washington for more information.
