Ian Van Heyde Memorial Culinary Scholarship Fund
UNIVERSAL APPLICATION
Ian Van Heyde Memorial Culinary Scholarship Fund
Stephen and Nancy Van Heyde established this fund in memory of their son, Ian. Ian was a senior at Whetstone High School and a distinguished student in culinary arts at Northeast Career Center. The purpose of the fund is to preserve the memory of Ian, an ever-smiling teenager, and to perpetuate his reputation for helping others. As he was intensely interested in a career in culinary arts, the scholarship fund will award scholarships to students pursuing postsecondary studies in the culinary arts, food management, or restaurant management.
Eligibility Criteria:
- Candidates must be graduating from, or have graduated from, a culinary arts program operated by a public school system in central Ohio (Franklin and contiguous counties and Knox County in Ohio).
- Candidates must be in the top 20% of the applicant’s culinary arts program (outside of the culinary arts program, there is no academic requirement); OR, maintain an “A” average in their culinary classes.
- Candidates must be pursuing post-secondary education in culinary arts (which includes pastry and baking), restaurant management, or food management.
- Candidates must attend or plan to attend an educational institution in the U.S.
- Previous recipients, if eligible, are encouraged to reapply.
