Spring Grove Area Scholarship Fund's Coins for College Drive Doubles Previous Year's Collection

The Spring Grove Area Scholarship Fund (SGASF) held its annual Coins for College Drive from March 11 to 22, 2024. The event raised a total of $4,593.49, which was twice the amount collected the previous year. Students from kindergarten to eighth grade contributed to the fund, which will be used for scholarships for Spring Grove seniors.

Each year, the school that raises the most money per student earns a named scholarship. This scholarship is then awarded to a qualifying senior at the SGASF Awards Banquet. To add a competitive element, SGASF introduced a trophy for the school that raises the most funds. The trophy stays with the winning school until the next year's winner is announced.

This year, Paradise Elementary School raised the most money per student, with an average of $4.39. The organizers acknowledged the students' efforts and the success of the drive, thanking and congratulating all participants.
