Vail Valley Cares Thrifty Shops Scholarship

In 1991, a group of local churches formed Vail Valley Cares to assist people in need in the community. Since then, Vail Valley Cares has come to the aid of many residents by working in partnership with a host of other benevolent organizations in the valley. This scholarship was created for Eagle County applicants with a financial need, a desire to better themselves, and a history of community involvement.
