Pledge to make a difference, together.
The Cygnet Scholarship Foundation was founded in 2019 by Jim and Maura Tierney and Kelly and Roger Kadlec in order to provide scholarships for students in the western suburbs of Minneapolis.
Our mission is to impact lives in a positive way by providing scholarships for students. Cygnet sees higher education as a catalyst, an agent of change for individuals, families, communities, and nations.
Scholarships are awarded to graduating seniors or current students continuing their education. Applications are accepted on our events page beginning in April through early June. All scholarships are awarded in person at our Cygnet Summer Splash at Jim and Maura Tierney's home each July as listed on our "Events" page. All are welcome to attend this exciting event.
