Community Scholarship Association of Granby
The Community Scholarship Association of Granby (CSAG) has been awarding deserving graduating high school students with scholarships since 1958. Along with the David A. Schupp, Jr. Memorial Scholarship established in 1992, CSAG has awarded over $650,000 in scholarships to nearly 400 college-bound Granby Memorial seniors, making a significant impact on their young lives.
CSAG has been performing this service while managing contributions of all kinds, but particularly funds from a Holcomb Family Endowment and annual fundraising in conjunction with The Granby Road Race.
Applicants must be Granby residents who are soon-to-be high school graduates accepted at an institution of higher learning approved by the selection committee. The David A. Schupp, Jr. Memorial Scholarship will be specifically awarded to a student pursuing a STEM major. Additional scholarships take into consideration given need, initiative, character, responsibility and higher than average involvement in the local Granby community.
With the always rising costs of a college education, CSAG asks former scholarship recipients, as well as the Granby community, to consider making tax-deductible contributions to CSAG so that the organization can award more scholarships and provide more substantial awards. Contributions should be made out to CSAG and mailed to Steve Schock, Treasurer, 19 Moosehorn Road, West Granby, CT 06090.
Scholarship applications are available online through Naviance, at the College and Career Center or through your guidance counselor. Completed applications should be submitted to Mrs. Caruso in the GMHS counseling office on or before May 1.
