The New Prague Area Education Foundation is gearing up for its 2nd annual day of giving, Give NP Day, on April 30, 2025. Give NP Day is the foundation’s annual giving event that unites supporters to showcase their pride and provide vital funding for senior scholarships.
One year ago, the foundation held its 1st ever Give NP Day and it was a huge success, raising more than $10,000 for senior scholarships. This year, the day of giving on Wednesday, April 30th will run from noon to noon in hopes of spurring even more pride and celebration amongst our community, alumni and students.
“The generosity of our community and foundation supporters clearly showed the impact that Give NP Day has on graduating seniors.” said Cheryl Kotek, NPAEF President. “Every year we have so many well deserving students who deserve a chance at winning a scholarship. As a foundation, we strive to provide as many scholarships for students to allow them the opportunity to go to a post secondary institution after high school.”
The Give NP Day targets our community members, former parents and students who may have benefited from a scholarship in the past, New Prague High School Alumni and parents of our youth. Last year, even our students got involved. The New Prague Middle School Student Council pledged $1,000 towards a scholarship for an outgoing senior.
The funds raised during Give NP Day provide critical scholarship support for this spring's Honors Night. In 2024, the Foundation helped distribute over 100 scholarships worth $110,000. All money raised goes directly to the NPAEF scholarship fund and helps the foundation reach its mission of “Building a legacy that promotes a community of innovative, lifelong learners.”
