Scholarships and Awards

The goal of Community 2000 Scholarships is to offer students in the towns of Charlestown, Hopkinton, and Richmond the opportunity to further their education by providing financial assistance in the form of four-year scholarships that provide each student continued support throughout their undergraduate studies.

Award winners are typically graduating high school seniors. Students may apply for a general need-based scholarship or one targeted specifically to support graduates based upon future areas of study. These include the following:
