The Casper Area Education Foundation's mission is to partner with the Natrona County community to invest financial and volunteer resources in our children's future. This year, thanks to the generosity of community donors, the Casper Area Education Foundation Trustee’s Scholarship in the amount of $2,000 each year for up to four years of continued academic excellence and success was awarded to three outstanding student recipients who have demonstrated exceptional academic excellence and dedication to expanding upon their educational journey with participation in extracurricular activities and community involvement. Additionally, Academic Perseverance Scholarships were awarded to graduating seniors who have demonstrated commendable academic or personal growth and exhibited extraordinary perseverance while achieving educational success. Recipients of each scholarship also demonstrated a thoughtful plan for their future and hopes of giving back to their community.
Over the years, the Casper Area Education Foundation has been incredibly fortunate to support students on their next steps after graduation, whether attending a university, college, trade school, military academy, or a study abroad educational opportunity. In total, the Casper Area Education Foundation has provided over $88,200 in scholarships to students in Natrona County. Additionally, the CAEF oversees over twenty outside scholarships in honor of and in memory of families or individuals. We are fortunate to live in a community that continues to support education and provides opportunities for young people to pursue their educational journey and dreams.
