Thank You, Students and Citizens of Dighton and Rehoboth For a Successful Scholarship Campaign!

During the third weekend of March, Seniors from Dighton-Rehoboth Regional High School went door-to-door to raise funds toward their scholarships. The Teams visited many of their neighbors along the 14 Dighton routes and the 27 routes in Rehoboth to explain the Citizens Scholarship Foundation, now in its 59th year of assisting D-R Seniors toward their higher education.

Dighton and Rehoboth residents who were at home gave kind words of encouragement to the Falcon Class of 2019, donating generously toward their future enterprises. All the funds collected during this campaign become scholarships for these students, who also are considered for many additional CSF scholarships toward higher education for a standard degree or certificate of study.

Being a participant of the Door-to-Door Campaign--without exception--is required for eligibility of any funds from the Citizens Scholarship Foundation of Dighton-Rehoboth. The participants must complete their on-line applications by the April deadline.

How are scholarships awarded? Applications are scored by trained volunteers serving on an Awards Committee. Areas that are taken into consideration, in addition to financial need, include their declared interest of study, work experience, school and community service activities, academic record, etc. The selection process is objective and nondiscriminatory, making scholarships available to a wide range of deserving students planning to attend an accredited post-secondary institution.

Since 1961, CSF Dighton-Rehoboth has been providing opportunities for students. Together with the community we are investing in our greatest resource, our youth. Anyone can help in two ways:

1.Share your time, your skills, and your ideas. Parents of D-R High School students in any grade, and all others interested, are welcome at all the Foundation's monthly meetings in the High School Administrative Conference Room. Phone (508) 222-5872 with inquiries.

2.Make a contribution. Can you assist these young people to attain the level of education toward their own definition of success? There’s still time to donate to the Scholarship fund for this year’s awards. Please use the CSF donation form shown.

Thank you so very much from the Class of 2019.
