The Edward Taylor Coombs Foundation was able to give away over $30,000 in college scholarships this year! We are extremely proud and humbled by the support and the continued interest in expanding the mission and goals of the ETC foundation!
The ETC foundation was founded to not only continue the legacy of Edward Taylor Coombs but also to support visionary leaders of tomorrow who display exceptional promise today. A second goal of the Foundation is to work with high school students around the issues of \”responsible decision making\”, whether we are discussing safe and healthy peer relationships, appropriate usage of \”social media\”, as well as the consequences of drinking and driving, the ETC Foundation hopes to be on the front line of teenage and young adult education and empowerment
We would like to thank all of those who applied and those who assisted in the application process. Thank you to Sheila Horton, Carol Chestnut, Curtis Griffin, Eugene Golson, and Wendy Rhode for choosing the recipients of the Hatboro-Horsham ETC Scholarships.
