Summary of 25-26 School Year with CAPP

The CAPP Fund just completed its 6^th year of giving back to any local high school seniors who applied for reimbursement of up to 2 college application fees! Thanks to the second year of generous support of the Marcella Foundation, the CAPP fund was able to support all 89 fee reimbursements that were requested by our local high school seniors! Donating back $5,880 to high school seniors, the CAPP fund totals its 6-year donations at just over $25,000!!!

Also, last year, the CAPP Fund has created a scholarship...the CAppED (College Application Extra Dollars) Scholarship.  So, now, instead of reimbursing students 100% for each application, the CAPP Fund reimbursed the college application fee minus $10… thus the CAPP fund will now give that $1000 out to one of the students who applied to the CAPP Fund as a scholarship for their continuing education after high school at a 4-year university.  Last year, through a random drawing, Mars Lopez, was the lucky recipient.  This year, we will do another random drawing from the recipients who applied for the CAPP Fund, so be on the lookout… scholarship winner will be announced at STHS’s scholarship night on April 21!

The CAPP Fund is here to serve the students in our community!  100% of all donations go back to the students. We look forward to helping in our own small way with the access to education beyond high school!
