Scholarships

You Can Help Port Angeles Kids Attend College!

One of our proudest moments of the year is when we recognize outstanding graduates of Port Angeles public high schools by helping them meet post-secondary educational goals.

In 2024, the Foundation awarded scholarships totaling $336,750. Some of these scholarships are renewable and are awarded in a student’s sophomore, junior or senior year of college when they meet specified criteria.

Scholarship candidates are evaluated for success in a variety of fields, both in school and in the community. Through the scholarship notebook and additional information, PAEF’s Scholarship Committee chooses recipients who match criteria set within each scholarship fund. There is no separate application process for our scholarships.

For us, each scholarship celebrates the achievements of our students and represents a long-term investment in the future. We are committed to building a vibrant community for generations to come and to breaking down barriers to higher education.

Success in education starts at an early age. Your tax-deductible contribution will help us improve access to life-changing educational opportunities and increase the number of Port Angeles students who are ready to succeed in today’s world.
