The Cal Coast Cares Foundation announced it is accepting applications for college scholarships totaling more than $160,000, with a deadline of March 20.
According to California Coast Credit Union, awards of up to $2,000 are available to college students, graduating high school seniors, and current or former foster students in San Diego or Riverside counties who show academic and community-leadership records. First-year foster-student recipients can seek a second-year award if they continue to meet the requirements, the foundation said.
Foundation manager Penney Newell said the money is meant to reduce higher-education costs. Applications and eligibility details were posted at calcoastcu.org/community/cal-coast-cares-foundation/. Cal Coast said it was established by San Diego teachers in 1929.
