The Columbus Education Foundation is proud to share the successful conclusion of its Pathway to Possibilities Matching Gift Campaign. This major community effort raised more than $50,000 in matching funds to support scholarships for Columbus High School graduates.
Launched in October 2025, the Pathway to Possibilities campaign aimed to remove financial barriers for graduating seniors, with a focus on students pursuing careers in healthcare, mental health, and skilled trades. These fields represent both the aspirations of our students and critical needs within our community. Thanks to the generosity of donors across the community, CEF reached its matching goal and will be able to expand scholarship opportunities for Columbus High School graduates.
Scholarships funded through the campaign will support students entering college, technical schools, and certification programs in healthcare, mental health services, and skilled trades. By investing in these pathways, the Foundation is helping prepare students for meaningful careers while strengthening the local workforce.
CEF extends its sincere thanks to all donors, partners, and supporters who helped make the Pathway to Possibilities campaign a success. Your generosity will have a lasting impact on students and families for years to come.
