The Idyllwild community can take great pride in its annual contribution toward furthering the education of Idyllwild graduating seniors.  It is a positive way to recognize the youth of the community who strive to succeed and be good citizens.  Such recognition is important in today’s world as a counter against so many negative forces at work.

After interviewing these young people, one is impressed with their intelligence, sincerity, sensitivity, and the desire they have to contribute to the progress of our society.  In 2023, a total of $30,000 was awarded to Idyllwild students.
