The Gracie Fund offers tuition-reimbursement incentives to encourage natives
of Washington County, or those who consider Washington County their “home”,
to establish roots in the community following completion of their
post-secondary education. Applications are invited from students who have
recently completed school and are building a professional and personal life
in Washington County.
The Gracie Fund fosters community development by helping recipients connect
to Washington County through their commitment to a career and community
service. School loan repayment
awards of up to $5,000 will be awarded to up to three individuals each
year. Awards may be renewed for up to three years.
The IRS considers these awards taxable income.
Complete
guidelines and application form

Community Foundation and SCEC, which jointly administer the Gracie Fund.
