Applications for the Concord-Carlisle Scholarship Fund are available online at www.CCscholarshipfund.org. Students seeking support for the 2011-2012 academic year must submit their applications by April 1, 2011. As an independent non-profit, Concord Carlisle Scholarship Fund has been providing support to deserving local students for over 40 years. In 2010 over $200,000 was awarded to local students to help finance their college educations. Applicants must reside in Concord or Carlisle or have attended school in one of these towns. The CCSF scholarships are awarded based on financial need. Applications for CCSF scholarships are shared with many local organizations such as the Concord Rotary, the United Women’s Club of Concord, the VFW, the Concord Public Library, the Rivercrest Deaconess,  the Concord Children's Center, the Carlisle Old Home Day, the Carlisle Garden Club and the Walden Woods Project, which award merit and need-based scholarships.
