Summary
Beaver Island Community School and the Charlevoix County Community Foundation formalized plans in 2003 for a 21st Century Learning Scholarship fund. The fund was intended to support graduates who met the school’s community-generated profile, with an initial goal of $10,000. In March 2004, students, staff, and board members contributed $1,000; the report also records $1,200 already in the principal account and a $400 pledge for a 2004 graduate.
Evidence limits
The report documents the fund’s establishment and fundraising plans, not later awards or the final endowment balance.
