The Village Bank will award seventeen college scholarships to Class of 2022
Newton, MA According to Joseph De Vito, president & CEO of The Village Bank, the Auburndale Community Charitable Foundation is now accepting college scholarship applications from local high school seniors.
The seventeen scholarships totaling $50,000 will be awarded to college-bound students of the Class of 2022. The recipients can apply the scholarship funds toward tuition, room and board, or supplies at an accredited college or university. The application deadline is April 1, 2022.
The Foundation will award two $10,000 scholarships and fifteen $2,000 scholarships. The $10,000 scholarship recipients are required to have demonstrated active involvement in community and/or charitable causes, in a leadership capacity, in addition to academic achievement. Eligible Newton or Wayland residents will be considered for both award categories. Applicants who do not reside in Newton or Wayland will be considered for the $2,000 awards.

The Auburndale Community Charitable Foundation’s investment in education since the program began in 1998 will total more than $950,000 with this year’s awards, according to De Vito. The scholarships are funded in part by the Annual Golf Classic held by The Village Bank each fall.
The Village Bank, chartered by the state in 1910, has eight full-service offices in Newton and Wayland and a Village Loan Center in Upper Falls.
