Our Organization
In 1999 several residents of Trout Lake came together with a common goal of helping local students further their education by providing financial assistance. Based on this goal, Articles of Incorporation and By-Laws were adopted resulting in the formation of the Trout Lake Community Foundation. The Foundation is a non-profit corporation registered in the State of Washington and has Federal non-profit status. A volunteer Board of Directors governs, oversees fund raising projects, dispenses funds, and guides the future direction of the Foundation. The Board operates independently of the Trout Lake School Board. TIN 91-2010756
Board of Directors
Jeff Baker, Martha Hylton, Janie Kavanagh, Page Logan, Coralee Warner, Pete Welch, Marci Shuman, Jim White, Kathy White, Bettina McCuistion (Emeritus)
A Special Thank You
Thanks to the generosity of this Great Community dozens of students have been awarded more than $100,000 in scholarships since our beginnings in 1999. We could not have done it without you. Your donations, attendance at our functions and especially your volunteer work, have made an incredible difference in the lives of Trout Lake students.

Our Mission
The primary objective of the Trout Lake Community Foundation is to provide scholarships for post secondary education and career training. The Foundation recognizes that further education is a necessity in today's world and that without financial assistance many students face difficulties in realizing their dreams. Recipients of the financial aid may be graduating seniors of Trout Lake High School, Trout Lake graduates who need aid to complete their post-secondary education, and current Trout Lake residents whose situation warrants a career change.
