Conesus Lake Assocation
August 10, 2020
We are excited to announce our newest initiative, the creation of The Conesus Lake Environmental Scholarship Award. The purpose of this award is to encourage local High School students who intend to pursue a college degree in the environmental sciences, to become knowledgeable and active lake stewards. We believe there is a need to ensure that the CLA mission is carried on by future generations.
With your help, we will award two annual scholarship awards, one to a Geneseo High School Senior and the other to a Livonia High School Senior, beginning in the Spring of 2021. The awardees must be pursuing their secondary education in the Environmental Sciences and have demonstrated an active interest in the health, welfare, and safety of Conesus Lake and its residents.
We have recently started a Fundraising Campaign, and are asking for your participation. Our Fundraising goal is $20,000. Your generous charitable donation will encourage local students to demonstrate their commitment to our environment and our lake community.
If you would like to make a donation online, please visit www.conesuslake.org. One hundred percent (100%) of your donation will go into the scholarship fund. Although you can be a one-time donor, we hope you will consider an annual donation.
You will receive an acknowledgment letter from the Conesus Lake Association confirming your donation amount and stating our status as a 503 (c) 3 Tax-Exempt organization. This letter may be submitted to your tax preparer as needed.
Thank you for your continued support of the Conesus Lake Association and its mission. Please feel free to contact Andy Ernst, Chair of the Scholarship Committee, for additional information or application details.
Sincerely,
Andy Ernst
Chair, CLA Scholarship Committee
