Scholarships

Thanks to the vision of its founders, today the Ashland Rotary Foundation has a long history of giving.

The initiative to raise money for scholarships began in 1971 and the Ashland Rotary Foundation was established 1984 to provide scholarships to AHS and SOU students ready to launch their next steps.

Donations from our members, over 53 years, have built the fund to $1.7 million. ARF funds scholarships from interest earnings each year. Over $1 million have been awarded to date.

It’s not hard to believe this tradition will continue and only grow and serve more of the club and community needs.

Board of Directors: Dann Hauser, Lisa M. Dunagan, Neal Governor, Alan Harper (Chair), Susan Hearn, Mark Jaffe, David Kanner, James Kolker, Joan Mary McBee.

The Ashland Rotary Foundation (ARF) is an organization whose members are also members of the Rotary Club of Ashland.
