In the 1820's, a group of All Saints Episcopal Church members donated funds to establish an orphanage to support and educate needy children. In the 1940's, the community's need for the orphan house declined, so the orphanage was closed, and the sale proceeds were used to establish an educational fund. The board strives to award scholarships to Frederick County residents based on need and promise as they administer this fund. Historically, 10-15 awards, ranging from $500 to $2,500, have been given each year to one immediate family member at a time. Available only at the undergraduate level, these awards may be renewed by students reapplying each year while still an undergraduate student.
