Margaret Dittman Memorial Education Grant
This grant is not available at the current time.
The Margaret Dittman Memorial Education Grant was established by her husband, Mr. Gene Dittman, to assist graduates of West Iron County High School of good character and in financial need to continue their education. The Dittmans recognized that the rising cost of higher education has made it more difficult for individuals of modest means to advance and complete their education. Through their generosity, this grant will be offered biannually.
The West Iron County Education Foundation will be accepting applications for the fall 2020 semester for this unique grant opportunity. Interested individuals must apply by September 30, 2020. Only completed applications postmarked by the deadline date will be considered. The grant is awarded for the fall 2020 semester only. The number of grant recipients and the award amount will be determined by the grant review committee. The average given has been $10,000 a year. After this fall, a total of $75,000 was given out to Wykon Graduates.
The recipients of the grant will be posted on this website and the names of the recipients released to local media for publication. The Foundation will only notify the applicants selected for the grant award.
