The Allegany County Area Foundation will hold its annual Dollars for Scholars Awards Program on Sunday, May 20th at 2:00 p.m. in the Cuba-Rushford Middle/High School. This program is open to the public.

This year the Foundation will award $296,300 to 156 recipients from across Allegany County. With these awards this will put their total amount of scholarship and grant awards at $3,208,627 since 1989. This is an amazing amount of money raised for Allegany County citizens. Since 1989 over 2,000 students have received scholarships from the ACAF Dollars for Scholars Program.  We thank all of our donors who have made this possible!
