Foundation Scholarships

Lunda Charitable Trust

This scholarship is available to two incoming freshmen each year who are Jackson County residents and graduates of Black River Falls High School. It will provide financial assistance to full-time students who, through their pre- college academic success and extracurricular activities, have demonstrated outstanding scholarship and leadership to school and community. Applicants will be accepted from students in the Black River Falls School District. Preference will be given to Black River Falls School District applicants although students residing in other districts in Jackson County will be considered after special nomination by the scholarship committee. Applicants must rank in the upper 25 percent of their high school senior class following completion of the seventh high school semester. Need is not a determining factor but will be a factor in calculating the level of support. The scholarship will be awarded for one year upon enrollment at UW-Eau Claire. This scholarship is a one-year scholarship to be awarded for the freshman year only.

Application forms and scholarship announcements (available from Sue Leadholm at Black River Falls High School) will be forwarded to Jackson County high schools by October 1 of the preceding year.
