How to Help

Honoring local high school students through annual awards.

The mission of Utica Dollars for Scholars is to establish and maintain a growing source of financial and academic support for local students. Utica Dollars for Scholars was established in 1994 by volunteers to honor promising young people; particularly Proctor High School graduating seniors, through financial support of their higher education.We also provide support for the Young Scholars Program.

UDFS celebrates its 14th anniversary in 2008.
