Scholarship fund seeks support

Carol Golden of Princeton Regional Scholarship Foundation
    The Princeton Regional Scholarship Foundation (PRSF) is an all-volunteer, non-profit organization that gives need-based scholarships to Princeton High School graduates in order to attend the college or vocational school of their choice.
   During its more than 30 years of operation, PRSF has provided nearly $1 million in college scholarship aid to PHS grads. Our recipients attend top colleges and universities such as Rutgers, Cornell, and Howard, Hampshire, Skidmore, and Bryn Mawr College. Others choose to enroll in vocational programs; some attend art institutes or music schools. Many who receive our scholarships become students at Mercer County Community College.
   We are very proud to support our students who are the first in their families to go to college. What all these students have in common is the determination to pursue higher education despite financial challenges.
   Our community-based organization has long relied primarily on individual contributions, and we would like to thank all of you who donate to our efforts. While we are increasingly seeking support from foundations, corporations, and other sources, we still need your support in order to meet the growing need among PHS students.
   This year, PRSF is planning its third annual “Get Up & Dance!” party on Saturday, January 26, 2008 at Princeton University’s Cap and Gown Club. It will feature fabulous food, music everyone likes to dance to, and a silent auction of must-have original and unusual items. We invite you to come, have a lot of fun, and at the same time help PRSF raise the funds necessary to support the PHS students from Princeton and Cranbury who need our help.
