OPEN A SCHOLARSHIP FUND
Have you ever considered establishing a scholarship fund on behalf of yourself, your family, or even your business? By partnering with the Community Foundation of Louisa County, we can make your dreams of supporting local youth through scholarships a reality. Establishing a scholarship endowment allows the donor to make tax-deductible gifts to the fund, and creates eligibility to receive the Endow Iowa Tax Credit. Whether you are interested in offering a scholarship to students at a specific high school or to all eligible students in Louisa County, your partners at the Community Foundation can work with you to make it happen.
Below is a list of services provided when you establish a scholarship fund with us:
-
Legally accept and acknowledge charitable contributions to the fund
-
Provide donors with relevant charitable tax-deductible information
-
Create scholarship and award criteria
-
Review scholarship awarding criteria with local high school guidance departments
-
Include scholarships on online application portal - students submit one application electronically to be considered for multiple scholarship opportunities.
-
Provide online evaluation process for scoring qualifying applications and selecting recipients.
-
Communicate with recipients to provide information regarding their responsibilities.
-
Keep appropriate records for all scholarship recipients, including enrollment verification and academic good standing
-

-

-
Undertake an annual audit for all funds and file Federal Form 990
