How You Can Help

The Board of Trustees of the Buckeye Career Center Foundation, Inc., invites you to participate in the mission of the Buckeye Foundation with a donation to our scholarship program.

Through the generosity of individuals and companies in the area, we have been able to offer 473 scholarships totalling $966,200 to Buckeye Career Center graduates since the 1998-1999 school year. These scholarships, given for advanced academic or technical studies, or for tools for trades, enable these students to become better and more skilled employees.

Shannon Wigfield Memorial Scholarship

We are now accepting donations to honor the late Mrs. Shannon Wigfield. Mrs. Wigfield was a 24-year staff member at BCC, teaching English to countless BCC students over the years. She was tragically killed in the November 14, 2023, bus crash involving the Tusky Valley band. Mrs. Wigfield is remembered for her vibrant smile, laugh, and personality. She took pride in coordinating prom court nominations and crownings each year and chaperoned numerous field trips with BCC students.

Contributions in Mrs. Wigfield’s name will be earmarked towards the Shannon Wigfield Memorial Scholarship.

We hope you will participate in this worthy program to support both the human and economic development of the area. Please download our donation form below and contribute at one of the levels described.
