Jacob Ellis, son of Scott and Denise Ellis, passed away November of 2020, at the age of 17 years old. A scholarship fund was set up in his honor. Jacob attended C-TEC in Newark, as a member of the welding program, which was his passion. Other kids have the same passion but not the ability to afford such an opportunity. The welding program is $700 per year per student. This scholarship is intended to help kids that have the same passion that Jacob did, but don't have the financial backing.
In the fall of 2021, the first scholarship was awarded. Since then, 4 kids have benefitted.
If you would like to donate you can:
1. Call C-TEC at 740-364-2832 and let them know that you would like to donate to the Jacob Ellis Scholarship Fund.
2. Visit C-TEC in Newark OH and make a donation in person, or
3. Give your check to either Scott or Denise, and they can deliver it. Please ensure the check is made out to Jacob Ellis Scholarship Fund.
If you would decide to give to Jacob's fund it is tax deductible and you will receive a letter from the school. Thank you to all that have donated this past year!
