Empower the Next Generation:
Contribute to Scholarships through the Thaddeus Stevens Foundation
Thanks to the unwavering support of our community partners, the Thaddeus Stevens Foundation awarded over $140,000 in scholarships to 87 deserving students last year, directly impacting their educational journeys.
While our college offers competitive tuition rates and benefits from strong community support, many students still face financial challenges that hinder their access to quality education. Your continued support is essential in breaking down these barriers.
Thank you for choosing me to be a recipient of your scholarship, I am honored. While at Thaddeus Stevens I am in the plumbing technology class and work for a plumber when I am on break from school. Receiving this scholarship allows me to cut into my student loan that I continue to work and pay for, as well as easing the financial burden that me and my two sisters going to college causes. After I graduate from Thaddeus I plan to work in the plumbing union and give back to my community.
