The Putnam County Community Foundation is proud to announce the recipients of its 2026 scholarship awards. This year, students from across Putnam County have been selected to receive financial support for their post-secondary education, with total awards amounting to over $290,000.
Each scholarship was made possible through the generosity of local donors who have established endowed scholarship funds administered by PCCF. These funds are designed to support students pursuing a variety of educational goals, from vocational training and associate degrees to bachelor’s and advanced degrees. PCCF’s dedicated Scholarship Committee, made up of community volunteers, ensures a fair and thorough review process. Scholarships are then approved by PCCF’s Board of Directors.
