Buckeye Foundation
To assist Buckeye Career Center students in their chosen career path, the Buckeye Career Center Foundation was established during the 1998-99 school year by a group of local business people from each school district sending students to Buckeye Career Center.
The Buckeye Foundation has three areas of interest:
Provide scholarships for those secondary graduates that wish to advance their opportunities for employment by attending a trade, technical, or a four-year college.
Provide funds for those secondary graduates of Buckeye Career Center to purchase tools of their trades for entrepreneurial endeavors and/or recently accepted positions.
Provide grants to teachers at Buckeye Career Center for teaching aids and methods that will take students' learning to the highest level.
Since 1999, the Buckeye Foundation has awarded a total of 473 scholarships worth $966,200.00 to Buckeye Career Center students. With 28% of Buckeye seniors pursuing post-secondary education, this assistance is a positive step. The trustees of the Buckeye Foundation hope the public will help us support these worthwhile needs.
