Colorado Valley Telephone Cooperative, Inc. recently rewarded $60,000 in scholarships to twelve graduating seniors from six area high schools. Each student receives a $5,000 scholarship.
The Cooperative’s Rural Scholarship Fund is derived from money (capital credits, deposits, etc.) unclaimed by former members of the Cooperative that would otherwise be deposited in the State’s Escheat Fund. In addition, the scholarships are funded with earnings on money that has been set aside by the Cooperative for scholarships. Colorado Valley Telephone Cooperative is committed to its members and the communities it serves and is investing in the future through ongoing support for higher education.
