Karen E. Gordon Scholarship Information

CEO’s former executive director, Karen Gordon, firmly believed that anyone who set their mind to succeed should be afforded the educational opportunities to do so, no matter their economic status. This passion to support the educational and employment success of Rensselaer County residents along with CEO’s mission to develop opportunities for social and economic growth and empowerment in individuals, families, and communities inspired the creation of the scholarship.  The scholarship opportunity is available to current or potential students in post-secondary education or training programs, and persons who have participated in CEO’s programs or have otherwise supported CEO’s mission.
