We aim to raise finances in order to grant scholarships to more students, as well as providing a conduit for individuals, organizations and businesses wishing to contribute to local scholarships. Becoming a Grantor Many local organizations, businesses, families, and individuals have become grantors of scholarships either by establishing a fund through TDFS or by channeling their gift through TDFS to take advantage of Collegiate Partners, tax advantages or ease of administration. Contact our treasurer for assistance. Administration TDFS is run by local volunteers, TDFS has no paid staff. We raise funds for operational costs in the form of Membership Dues.
All funds donated for scholarships go toward scholarships.
We are eager to welcome new members who accept our mission providing assistance to Tenino graduates. This permits TDFS to use ALL scholarships funds for scholarships. You might also consider becoming involved as a board member serving on a committee. Being a volunteer organization we understand the importantance of involving a variety of community members to keep our organization strong. As a member of the national CSFA, Dollars for Scholars recipients have access to network of more than 250 Collegiate Partners that pledge to maximize the benefits of Dollars for Scholars awards.
