The Cobb Community Foundation (CCF) and Innovative Fitness is proud to recognize the recipients of the 2026 Fostering Education Scholarship Fund (FESF) awards. These scholarships represent more than financial assistance—they represent hope, opportunity, and a community coming together to invest in the future.
Since the Fostering Education Scholarship Fund was established in 2021, the program has awarded $46,500 in scholarships, including $6,000 for the Fall 2026 semester, helping students overcome financial barriers as they pursue higher education. The scholarship was created to support Georgia students who have aged out of the foster care system as they pursue their educational dreams.
