The Lakeshore College Foundation awarded $268,000 to Lakeshore College spring semester students, pushing its total awards for the 2024-25 academic year 81% over the previous year, to $577,000.
“We were very excited and proud to award scholarships to 636 students this academic year,” said Lakeshore Vice President of Institutional Advancement Kristy Liphart, who oversees the Lakeshore College Foundation. “We are able to support so many more students now thanks to three new full-tuition scholarships put into place for the 2024-25 year, for which we are grateful.”
The Kohler Foundation Advantage, Richard F. Brindza Memorial, and Adam Steel Fund are the new scholarships that led to the Lakeshore College Foundation more than doubling the number of full-tuition awards to students.
