Goshen Rotary Club
The Rotary Club of Goshen NY, through its foundation (The Goshen Rotary Scholarship Foundation, Inc.) supports and maintains a Scholarship Program. The goal of the program is to encourage well-rounded scholarship and aptitude geared toward service to others and the ever changing needs of society. Its objective is to help develop the valuable youthful minds and skills of deserving students in the Goshen area community. The reward is in having given students the opportunity to apply their abilities in the service to others.
Since the Goshen Rotary Scholarship Foundation first awarded a scholarship, more than one hundred and twenty students have received awards totaling over $340,000.
The Goshen Rotarians offer charitable donations to local community projects, individual grants, and humanitarian needs on a global scale. Since 1928 Goshen Rotarians have represented a cross-section of our area’s professional business leaders and community organizers enjoying fellowship, networking and friendships.
Impact
This scholarship was created in 2009.
“It is with deep gratitude that I accept the Goshen Rotary Club Scholarship. I am honored to have been chosen, and feel incredibly fortunate to be the recipient of your generosity. I am a returning student, pursuing a degree in Radiologic Technology. My decision to pursue this degree has been largely formed from a deep desire to be of service to others. My long term goal is to work within the field of women’s health imaging. I am truly grateful for your support. This scholarship allows me to maintain my course of study while providing considerable financial relief.” – *Caitlin O’Brien *
