About the Clark Scholarship Fund and our Organization

Since 1952, the Clark Scholarship Fund has honored outstanding Clark, N.J. students. Only through the contributions from businesses and individuals are we able to assist these students in continuing their education. All donations go directly to scholarships for our Clark students. The Fund is a not-for-profit organization managed by board members. We are an entirely volunteer organization with board members giving their time and effort to keep administrative costs to a minimum. We do not rely on third party administrators or solicitors.
Applicants must be student residents of Clark, New Jersey for the same academic school year as the year the scholarships are awarded in.
The Fund currently awards seven different scholarships as listed below to students taking four-year programs:

• Henry C. Staeger Scholarship, $4,000 payable at $1000 each of 4 yrs.
