Now Accepting Oneida Scholarship Applications

Posted Tuesday, August 11, 2020

Each year the Oneida Scholarship Fund offers grants to adults living in St. Paul’s West Seventh neighborhood who need financial help with a post-secondary education.

About Oneida Scholarship Fund

The Oneida Scholarships, now administered through Keystone Community Services, are a legacy from the Oneida Education Center whose mission was to provide quality adult education classes and to strive to improve individuals’ lives through education. After the Oneida Education Center closed, the scholarship program was established to help make our community stronger by promoting education among West Seventh residents.
