Carter Memorial UMC is delighted to offer three $1,000 scholarships to graduating seniors who plan to continue their education in a college, university, or accredited trade setting and reside in Needham, Wellesley, Dedham, Dover, Norwood, Westwood, and Newton. The scholarship criteria are based on community service and a genuine desire to serve others.

These scholarships are funded from the proceeds of the annual Carter Church Pumpkin Patch. This is the church's small way to thank the community for supporting our fundraising efforts through pumpkin sales and to demonstrate our commitment to service in the world.

Applications may be requested through the church office at 800 Highland Ave., Needham, MA 02494, or via our secure Contact form or downloaded from our Online Library. Applications are due back to the church office no later than Thursday, May 11th at noon and must be complete with all supporting documents. Late and incomplete applications will not be considered. Award notifications will be made by Saturday, June 10.
