The Northwest Kiwanis Club was founded in 1928 and during that time has offered many service projects for the communities of Upper Arlington, Grandview Heights, or Marble Cliff.
Our Scholarship Program is just one of many projects the club has sponsored in past years. To be eligible for one of the eight scholarships the high school senior student must live in OR attend a high school located in Upper Arlington, Grandview Heights, or Marble Cliff and be in good standing to graduate from high school. The Northwest Kiwanis Club presently awards eight (8) one year scholarships.
Applicants for the 8 scholarships will be evaluated based on grade point average, quality of course load, character, ACT/SAT Test Scores, community service, school activities, any appropriate special circumstances, and a letter of recommendation written by a supervisor or participating adult from one of the community or school service organizations listed in the student’s application. All information will be kept confidential and expunged after review of the applications.
To get a scholarship application one may contact their high school counselor in the fall of the student’s senior year or download a copy from this website during the months of September, October, and November.
Only the winners of the scholarships will be notified and invited with their parents to the Margaret and Jake Will Kiwanis Scholarship Banquet.
