The Tipp City Foundation recently awarded over $30,000 in scholarships. Many awards went to graduating high school seniors while $6,000 went to renewable awards from prior years. Of the 55 endowment funds within the Foundation, 15 represent scholarships.
Often these funds commemorate inspirational values of the scholarship founder; when this is the case, applicants are measured against those standards. Winners are determined through a vetting process led by an independent body of judges.
