The Community Foundation of the Virgin Islands (CFVI) has awarded $193,300 in scholarships to 65 Virgin Islands students for its 2024-25 academic scholarship cycle.

Award recipients were selected by a review committee of 30 individuals who reviewed 172 applications and made recommendations based on the specific criteria for each scholarship, the foundation announced. “At CFVI, we are committed to fulfilling our mission of enhancing the quality of life for children, youth, and families in the territory, and these scholarships play a significant role in that effort,” said Kafi Blumenfield, chair of CFVI’s Scholarship Committee and member of the CFVI Board of Directors.

“Since 1996, CFVI has provided more than $4 million in scholarships to talented and dedicated Virgin Islands students. We congratulate each and every one of this year’s deserving scholarship recipients and are deeply grateful to our volunteer review committee for their time and dedication,” she said.
