About Tri-County OUR PARTNER SCHOOLS allow students to thrive K-8th grade High School School Listing The Visionaries Leadership Friends of Tri-County Donors Partner Schools Staff Tri-County Scholarship Fund partners with accredited, private, grade schools and high schools that provide academic quality, a safe school environment, and a values-based program. Tri-County Scholarships are need-based, and are offered to K-12th grade students residing in Morris, Passaic, and Sussex counties. ​ A “values-based program” is demonstrated by a school honor code, community service, and a priority on character development. Many of our partner schools have a religious affiliation reflected in their curriculum. Others are not affiliated with any specific religion, but in their school programs emphasize the values of personal integrity, honesty, compassion, tolerance, self-reliance, patriotism, respect, generosity, kindness, and the intrinsically sacred value of each individual.

As a sponsor, you will enable hardworking students to receive a quality education in a safe and values-oriented setting. Your student will be encouraged toward success by a positive peer group, by caring teachers, and by your belief in them. ​ ​ Tri-County Scholarship Fund awards three types of scholarships for financially needy students to attend one of our accredited partner schools. Donors can choose to participate at one of these three “Fund a Student” scholarship levels: ​ K-8th grade student for just $2,250 per year. High school student for $4,000 per year High School Freedom Scholar: for $5,000 per year, representing an enhanced scholarship level for the most academically promising high school students, who maintain a “B” or better GPA. When you commit to a scholarship at one of these levels, you can choose to receive your student’s annual report card. ​ Scholarship recipients must re-apply each year in order update their financial need status, but current students are given priority. Tri-County is committed to seeing each student through to graduation. The clear priority is to provide continuity of scholarship support in order to maximize each student’s opportunity for success. By Funding a Student you will be an integral part of that child’s life - providing hope and opportunity - and empowering your student to success. Yearly Scholarships CREATE A TRIBUTE SCHOLARSHIP make a lasting impact Creat a named scholarship Create Your Own Tribute Scholarship Work with Tri-County to develop the appropriate scholarship to help the type of student you have in mind. Choose Giving Level Let Tri-County facilitate and administer your named scholarship as a tribute to a loved one. ​ Hundreds of students are currently on our waiting list, hoping that Tri-County Scholarship Fund will find a sponsor for them. In order to move a child off of our waiting list we need to secure the funding for them for the duration of their tuition assistance—typically 5 years or more depending on their age or circumstances. Speak to the Tri-County staff about a giving level that supports the number of students that you would like to help. If you would like your donation to assist a student at your specified school, we can arrange that. ​ With your named scholarship, you will be updated about your student(s) progess throughout the school year with correspondence from the student and their report card.

Margaret A. Darrin $1 Million Gift from the Margaret A. Darrin Charitable Trust Margaret A. Darrin 1924-2017 Message from the Charitable Trust: "The Margaret A. Darrin Charitable Trust was created through the vision and generosity of the late Margaret A. Darrin. Among the Trust's priorities, it seeks to empower and positively transform the lives of individuals facing extraordinary adverse circumstances. ​ Mrs. Darrin was a firm believer in the power of education as a gateway to success. To honor this core belief, the Margaret A. Darrin Trust is pleased to have the opportunity to partner with the Tri-County Scholarship Fund to provide so many deserving children with the opportunity to attend a safe, high quality, values based school. ​ Tri-County Scholarship Fund's proven model, and exemplary record of success were key factors in the Trust's decision to make a major grant. The gift, which is the most significant in the history of the Trust, stands as a testament to the Trust's strong belief in Tri-County's mission." Leave A Legacy IMPACT OF $1 MILLION DONATION Tri-County is very grateful for the generous grant from the Margaret A. Darrin Charitable Trust. $150,000 was awarded in direct scholarships—instantly lifting 53 children off of our 2018-2019 scholarship waiting list. $850,000 was invested to fund the subsequent year's schooling for these 53 students through graduation, and for many more students in the future.
