The Circle of Wisdom Society, affectionately called the COWS for short, was a group of 15 educators and support staff within Mission School District who created this fund in 2006. This scholarship was designed to assist female candidates wishing to enter into post-secondary studies in Education.
The fund was started when the Circle of Wisdom Society decided to stop giving each other gifts at birthdays and Christmas. Instead they made a pact to donate to the COWS fund at the Mission Community Foundation. This unique approach to gift giving has enabled many students the opportunity to further their education.
If you’d like to help a female graduating student enter the Education field, donate today!
