​
​The Women in Business Scholarship Fund was established in 2021 with a gift that will be used to further the college careers of qualified graduating Caledonia High School seniors. It was created by a family to honor their daughters and their many memorable years attending and graduating from Caledonia Schools. This fund is an effort to give back to the community that helped shape their daughters' lives and educational careers.  They hope to help other women in their pursuit of careers in the field of business.
