  • SCHOLARSHIP HISTORY

    This scholarship fund was founded in 1991 by longtime, beloved Boise-Eliot principal Betty Campbell in honor of her friend Jeanette Crawley. The seed money for the scholarships came from two national awards that Betty received for outstanding administrator.  It honors both educators and provides a legacy for their caring commitment to inner-city èßäapp¹ÙÍø children.  For over 30 years the main goal of this scholarship has been to provide increased opportunities for Boise-Eliot-Humboldt School students through higher-education funding. Money is raised from involved individuals, groups and foundations.

         * This scholarship fund has awarded over $750,000 since we began in 1993.

         * Over 400 students have been awarded in our 30 year existence with award packages between $500-$5000 based on individual need.

         * Our board is entirely volunteer-driven with under $500 in annual operating costs so that the maximum amount of assistance can be given directly to students.

         * The Board consists of 9 members.  We have former scholarship awardees, past teachers, the principal and community members.  

    Here is what a few of our recipients have said:

    “Growing up in a less privileged community has not only offered financial and academic challenges but has also helped me realize the value of a college education. Thank you for enabling this opportunity!“

     

    Another wrote:

    “This award shows younger generations that came from Boise-Eliot Elementary that they can achieve anything they want.“

     

    A third said:

    “I have no idea where I would be without this award and it’s so appreciated. There honestly aren’t enough thank yous in the world, so thank you very much.”
