Eugene J. Andolsek Memorial Scholarship
Eugene Andolsek was a gifted artist who used the medium of drawing to convey his struggles and insecurities, spending hours at the kitchen table with a compass, ruler, inks and graph paper creating intricate and complex pieces of art. Unable to pursue his education at a higher level due to family circumstances, Eugene felt he was denied the opportunity to reach his potential and be valued in life. Eugene was a quiet, frugal man who spent many years of his life creating pieces of art which on the surface communicate order and uniformity, whilst giving you a glimpse of the many complexities that must have existed in Eugene’s thoughts. Art was quite simply his escape. In 2005, when Eugene was 84 years of age, his work was featured in the exhibition ‘Obsessive Art’ at the American Folk Art Museum in New York, his work garnered much critical acclaim and proved to Eugene that despite being an untrained artist he was remarkably gifted and much sought after.
The Eugene J. Andolsek Memorial Scholarship is a lasting tribute to a man who valued education above most other things. From the proceeds of Eugene’s vast portfolio this memorial scholarship will enable a young student to continue their education in a way he was never able to. This scholarship has significant value and is renewable for up to 4 years of post secondary education.
Award Type: Multi-year (up to 4 years). Recipients must maintain 3.0 GPA.

Tad Fujioka Memorial Scholarship
A fund created in memory of Tad Fujioka to support graduates of Sitka High School, Pacific High School, Mount Edgecumbe High, or Sitka School District REACH homeschool. The scholarship will support college or vocational training in career choices that will help support the wellbeing and resilience of members of small Alaska communities.
Tad had great-grandparents who settled in Ketchikan in the early 1900's where his father learned to love fishing in Alaska. When Tad was one year old, he and his parents moved to Juneau, where Tad also learned to love fishing. After college, he moved to Sitka, where fishing was even better. After a stint of working in engineering, marrying, and starting a family, he got a salmon troll permit. He soon became involved not only in fishing but also in fishery policy and regulation, where his analytical ability helped to evaluate management proposals. His patience and diplomacy allowed him to effectively articulate ideas and solutions to problems he saw in existing conditions and propose measures, both in the management of the fishery and also in the processing sector, where he served as board chairman of the Seafood Producers Cooperative. He became a respected and effective advocate for the sustainability of the small boat fishing fleet, which supports the economy of many small towns and communities in Alaska. Commitment to serving his community included 20 years serving on the Sitka Advisory Committee to the Alaska Department of Fish and Game, teaching friends and students to harvest wild foods, and sharing his harvest throughout the community and the state.
To honor his legacy, his family has chosen to honor Tad by starting the Tad Fujioka Memorial Scholarship Fund.

Hope Chicago Grant

Our innovative two-generation model for supporting postsecondary access and success uplifts families and communities, and with Hope Scholars overwhelmingly staying in Illinois for college, all of Illinois stands to benefit. Hope Chicago is not a traditional college scholarship program. The most notable difference is our mission of bringing about systemic change in postsecondary affordability and support for low-income students across Illinois. Our program is intentionally designed around two systemic goals: (a) show the social and economic impact of policies that dramatically increase college access for both first-time freshman and returning adult students, and (b) identify and encourage the postsecondary support necessary for low-income, first-generation students to succeed.
Objective
As part of its program, Hope Chicago provides both a debt-free scholarship and wraparound support to enable Scholar success in their postsecondary education. The debt-free scholarship that first-time freshman Scholars receive is applicable at any postsecondary partner of Hope Chicago, which presently includes every public four-year university in Illinois, City Colleges of Chicago, and several private colleges and universities.
At these in-network schools, the scholarship provides
Parent Scholars also receive a scholarship to tuition-based partner programs, inclusive of the same elements as first-time freshman except on-campus housing and meals and the stipend.
