Sig and Helen Decker Memorial Non-Endowed Scholarship Fund

The Sig and Helen Decker Memorial Non-Endowed Scholarship Fund is administered by the Alaska Community Foundation. This program is designed to support graduating high school seniors from the Alaskan communities of Wrangell or Petersburg. To qualify, applicants must have personal experience working in commercial fishing or seafood processing.

The scholarship helps cover the costs of post-secondary education. To apply, students must complete the foundation's online scholarship application. The Alaska Community Foundation uses a single, centralized application system that matches applicants with various scholarship opportunities based on their educational background and experience. While this program does not explicitly require the FAFSA, students are generally encouraged to complete federal and state financial aid applications to maximize their funding opportunities.
