Frequently Asked Questions

 

Will 100% of my donation be awarded to students?

YES it will! All fees for the website and administration are donated separately.

Can a student receive the scholarship for an additional year?

The scholarship is now a Two-Year Scholarship. A third year book scholarship is now available.

Are other Case classes awarding scholarships?

Currently there is one other scholarship that is run through the Racine Foundation with a one year award of approximately $500. Our scholarship is more substantial, $1974/year for two years and now the book scholarship for the third year, which makes a significant impact on a student’s ability to further their education beyond high school with hopefully little or no debt.

We hope you will guide classmates and friends to our scholarship. Please honor other classmates, Case teachers and friends as part of your donation. The counselors and faculty at Case High School are so pleased that our scholarship makes an immediate and continued impact on students’ ability to further their studiess and lowers their long-term debt impact. Please spread the word about our scholarship so we can continue to grow to support first generation students and Racine’s future.

Is the money invested to accrue interest for future years scholarships?

YES it is! It is important to build a pot of money that will grow for future years so the Case Class of 74 Scholarship will continue on for many years into the future. The scholarship funds are held by RUSD and the interest rates are excellent with investment in Wisconsin municiple bond funds.
