Alumni Scholarship Funds are endowed monies that provide scholarship opportunities for the graduating seniors of AISD. These scholarship funds are generated by the alumni of the two high schools in the district. A permanent record of donors and gifts will be maintained by the AEF, who will also manage the review of scholarships. The Community Foundation of Abilene will manage investment of the contributions to the endowment.
This amazing opportunity was begun in 2008 by the AHS class of 1958 and the CHS class of 1978.
