Elmbrook Education Foundation (EEF) To Award 35 Scholarships

The Elmbrook Education Foundation (EEF) will award 35 scholarships this year on behalf of our generous donors. Scholarships are donated as memorials and honorariums as well as community charitable giving. Scholarships to technical schools and four-year colleges and universities are awarded based on community service, work history, volunteer work, academics, athletics, fine arts, and more.

Jason Lippold, BEHS School Counselor, said, “What I love about scholarships is they are often a win-win scenario. It helps organizations invest in their communities and our youth. For the youth and their families, it helps alleviate part of that financial obstacle of higher education.”

The scholarship application window is open from March 1 through March 26, 2022. All Elmbrook graduating seniors are eligible to apply.

“Our Elmbrook and BC students are the leaders of tomorrow. These scholarships afford our future leaders the opportunity to experience success in their post-secondary education: removing even a portion of the financial burden allows them to focus more heavily on their education and on reaching their post-collegiate goals,” said Leah Devine, BCHS School Counselor.

The Elmbrook Education Foundation (EEF) was organized in 1958 to award scholarships to select Brookfield High School graduates. In 1999, the Foundation's mission expanded to include teacher grants for innovative projects that benefit all students. The EEF raises money to support and strengthen outstanding learning ideas that improve the overall educational quality of our public schools. To date, the EEF has awarded over $1,400,000 in scholarships and over $500,000 in grants which enhanced and extended the established curriculum and supported projects that are beyond the district’s budget.
