The Class of 56 Scholarship Fund has a current balance of $10,100. The interest rate is very low but new contributions are helping to increase the fund.
A $500 scholarship was awarded to Ashley Titus in 2009. Ashley was introduced to reunion attendees and thanked the class for this stipend which helped with the cost of books and lab fees.
Tax deductible contributions for 2010 should be sent to the Muscatine Community School District Foundation by December 31, 2010.
Make your check payable to:
Muscatine Community School District Foundation
2900 Mulberry Ave.
Muscatine, IA 52761

With an annual payout of $500, the current fund would be exhausted in approximately eighteen years. If we increased the payout to $1000, the fund would be exhausted in approximately eight years. If you would like to see two scholarships awarded each year or a larger stipend for one person please make your thoughts known to members of the committee.
