The Killingworth Foundation congratulates each member of the Class of 2009 and wishes each one success in the next step in his or her education. On Wednesday evening of June 10, 2009 the Killingworth Foundation awarded three scholarships at HK Awards Night.

Two Killingworth seniors who earned The Killingworth Scholarship: Nicholas McGlynn, son of Jim and Marsha McGlynn, will be attending George Washington University and plans to study chemistry and Sarah Bartosiak, daughter of David and Margaret Bartosiak will be attending Eastern Connecticut State University (honors program) and will be studying European History.

The Killingworth Foundation also administers the Marjorie Kirk Ullrich Scholarship Fund which was established in 1993 and is funded by a trust created in her name for excellence in the Fine Arts. The Marjorie Kirk Ullrich Scholarship is awarded this year to Alexa Skoulis, daughter of Nicholas Skoulis and Dr. Susan Dufel, whose specialty is drawing. Alexa will be attending Savannah School of Arts and Design.

The Killingworth Foundation is a public non-profit foundation dedicated to increasing the amount and the impact of local philanthropy in order to enhance the quality of life for the citizens and the community of Killingworth. We believe that good citizenship and organized philanthropy are based on the ancient tradition of neighbors helping neighbors.
