Just about two months ago, our 2022 Scholarship Program application closed. Cream City Foundation has provided this opportunity for LGBTQ+ for seven years, and every year we reach more and more students. We are incredibly excited to announce that 2022 was a record-breaking year with 90 applicants. It is clear that we must continue to offer this program for students in SE Wisconsin. Thank you to all our donors and community partners for your continued support in helping Cream City Foundation carry out its mission.
Be on the lookout in the coming weeks as we will soon announce our 2022 Scholarship Program recipients.
