Edward Abbey

Edward Abbey was a friend to many and an inspiration to all associated with Round River. Ed’s family has graciously agreed that we may use his name in this manner.

We are committed to involving dedicated and qualified students in our conservation projects and we will work with you to help facilitate your application and financial needs. Financial assistance to qualified students from Round River is available from the Edward Abbey Scholarship Fund. Grants from this fund range from $500 to $5,000.

If financial assistance is needed in order to participate, we encourage you to contact us, as soon as possible, to discuss your financial needs and to request a financial aid
application.

Federal student support funds, including Stafford Loans, can also be applied and many universities and colleges are increasingly allowing the use of their own institutional financial aid for off-campus studies. If you encounter difficulty in arranging financial aid, please ask your school’s financial aid officer to call us.
