Welcome to the South Side Scholarship Foundation!
We were founded in 1969 as a Wisconsin Non-Profit Corporation whose primary purpose is to provide a scholarship fund for post-high school individuals to pursue continuing education.
Since the Foundation’s inception, 930 scholarships totaling more than $600,000 have been awarded to students from age 18 to over 50 years old. In 2018, our 50th year, we awarded $1,000 scholarships to 50 recipients.
Message from the President
Spring 2024 President’s Newsletter
As we begin to wrap up our 55th year, this incredible foundation has continued to impact the lives of our youth through the generosity of our many members and supporters.
Those contributions resulted in 25 scholarships, each worth $1000, given in 2023. Thanks to the continued support of our members, we have managed to continue our mission of assisting students with their higher education goals. Our Board of Directors is excited to build on this accomplishment in 2024. The Foundation will send out donation letters for the holiday season that also offer a contributing event towards membership. Also, we’re happy to announce we will be holding our second Spring Dinner on May 3, 2024. Through your giving, the South Side Scholarship Foundation continues to provide important benefits to many students. It’s with sincere appreciation that we thank each of you for your continuing support, and we will see you in 2024!
