For their 40th reunion in 2019, the Class of 1979 wanted to do something special to honor their deceased classmates, so they partnered with the NCHS Scholarship Foundation to estabish a named, endowed, on-going scholarship fund – The Class of 1979 Scholarship Fund. 

​

The NCHS Scholarship Foundation is a broad-based community effort to provide financial aid for New Canaan High School graduates pursuing higher education. 

Grant Criteria

Scholarships are 100% need-based. The grants are based on applications first placed through the federal student loan programs. All applicants and awards are kept confidential.

Your gift will make a difference for a New Canaan High School graduating student who needs financial assistance in continuing his/her education. And it’s a great way to honor our NCHS Class of 1979 friends who are no longer with us.  All donations are tax deductible.
