Our Purpose:
The Safford High School Scholarship and Education Foundation was formed in 1987 and awarded our first scholarship in 1988 in the amount of $500. As of May 2022, the Foundation has awarded $766,000 in scholarships. As a perpetual non-profit corporation, we pledge a continued commitment to the needs of our students and community. Through careful investments and generous donations, we are able to award many deserving students with scholarships to continue their education. Many of our members are alumni of Safford High School and all of our members volunteer their time and talents to help our local youth attain their academic goals.
