Tri Counties Bank, in partnership with the Community Foundation
of the North State, issued more than $100,000 in scholarships this
May to graduating high school seniors throughout California. The
scholarships ranged between $1,000 to $2,500 each and were awarded
to 55 students from 44 high schools in 21 counties.
Tri Counties Bank provides two scholarship opportunities: an
income-based scholarship for students whose families have an
Expected Family Contribution (EFC) of $5,846 or less, and a
merit-based scholarship for students with a Weighted Cumulative GPA
of 3.0 or higher.
Over 90 percent of scholarship funds were awarded to
low-to-moderate income students. Scholarship funds were sent
directly to the students’ chosen accredited college, university or
trade school to assist with education expenses.
“A key element of fulfilling the Bank’s mission is to invest in
our students, who will, in turn, strengthen our communities,” said
Rick Smith, President and CEO of Tri Counties Bank. “Of the 500
applications submitted, the 55 students awarded demonstrated
outstanding achievement in academics, public service or business
entrepreneurship. We are proud to assist with their goal of higher
education.”
