About the Scholarship Fund

All proceeds raised will go into the CCDWC Scholarship Fund. Together with the Calvert County Democratic Central Committee, the Democratic Club, and the Riverside Democratic Club, we fund a scholarship for a graduating senior at each of Calvert's four public high schools every year. This auction is our club's main fundraiser for these scholarships. Past winners have gone on to study nursing, the arts, math, public health, biochemistry, and more. You can read about last year's winners here.
