Dreams do come true. Mr. Jon Bhushan, a former Wadsworth student, returned to his hometown to share a vision.
He wanted to establish a foundation to help young men and women fulfill their dreams of attending college. In particular, he wanted to assist individuals who had a proven financial need, who had specific goals for their lives, and who had demonstrated a sound work ethic.
Jon’s dream was realized in 1987 when a group of Wadsworth citizens incorporated The Scholarship Foundation of Wadsworth. Since that time, the Foundation has enabled many needy, hard-working young men and women to pursue their college dreams.
The Foundation is governed by a Board of Directors with representation from former students, parents, and certified staff members. While the primary goal of the Foundation will always be to help deserving student acquire a college education, the Board of Directors has dreams, too. It hopes to broaden the scope of activities so that the lives of our community’s youth can be enriched in many additional ways.
The Scholarship Foundation of Wadsworth was established as a 501 (C) (3) Foundation. Your donations are tax deductible under applicable Federal 501 (C) provisions.
