Oroville Scholarship Foundation (OSF)

What is Oroville Scholarship Foundation?

Oroville Scholarship Foundation is locally operated and supported, non-profit 501(c)3, tax-exempt scholarship foundation. Operated by an all volunteer Board of Directors, the purpose of Oroville Scholarship Foundation is to expand student access to educational opportunities beyond high school through the support, assistance and involvement of our community.

Why is OSF so important?

Oroville Scholarship Foundation endeavors to financially assist Oroville High School graduates in their pursuit of higher education. Rising costs are closing doors to higher education for many individuals. Through OSF, we have the opportunity to make a strong, collective statement about the importance of education after high school. We can provide both encouragement and financial support for our local students.

How are funds for local awards provided?

Funds come from the generous support of individuals, business, service organizations as well as a fundraising events. We accept any amount of donation. We encourage you to give as generously as you can. Be assured that any and all gifts are appreciated by OHS graduates and OSF. Your contribution of $10, $100, $500 or $1000+ reflects your pride in our students and your commitment to the ongoing education of the young people of our community. For those who wish to establish an annual or endowed scholarship, Oroville Scholarship Foundation may be named as a beneficiary in wills, insurance policies, or receive gifts of money and  property. Please see our 'Donate' page.
