Mission
Worthington Scholarship Foundation (WSF) provides renewable scholarships and support services to Maine students with limited financial resources and a strong motivation to succeed in college who attend "partner colleges and community colleges" in Maine. In 2023, WSF awarded scholarships to students from 91 high schools in Aroostook, Franklin, Hancock, Kennebec, Knox, Lincoln, Oxford, Penobscot, Piscataquis, Sagadahoc, Somerset, Waldo, and Washington counties. In 2023, WSF funded 1,270 existing scholarship recipients. WSF student success staff works with the participating high schools to provide information to school staff, students, and parents, works with its participating colleges to enable student success, and communicates with Worthington Scholars throughout their college attendance. WSF accumulates data and research to determine student college progress and evaluates results to enhance WSF Scholar college success.
