Harry E. Tope Memorial Aviation Scholarship
Scholarship Sponsored by Mt. Pleasant Area Community Foundation
The Mt. Pleasant Area Community Foundation manages more than 85 permanently endowed scholarship funds which provide opportunities for a growing number of young people (and some not so young) in our community. Scholarships have been established by local individuals, businesses, and organizations wanting to help students achieve their educational goals. Some funds award multiple scholarships, but not all funds award scholarships every year.
