The Canty’s Underdog Scholarship – this scholarship was put in place to recognize a student who has strength of character. This deserving student may have gone unrecognized while in high school. They may not have been the high school scholar, they may not have been the star athlete, but they were a student who had grit and determination. They were kind, they did stand out. We want you to know you were seen. This Scholarship is offered in memory of Brad Canty, Class of 2018. Brad was just that kid, who had to work harder and overcome obstacles for success. Brad had unfortunate medical conditions which consequently limited his ability to attend school on a consistent basis which resulted in missing imperative class time. Despite his chronic illness, Brad was never lacking thoughtfulness, compassion, and kindness. Brad consistently would reach out to others to brighten their day.

This scholarship will be presented to a graduating applicant who has demonstrated good character, kindness, and empathy towards others. Applicants may have had to overcome a health challenge, an academic hurdle, a family crisis, or stood above others with an act of kindness.

Additional criteria includes: Hopkinton resident, who has been accepted to a post-secondary program.

We have been fortunate to be able to provide 10 scholarships each year, which have been awarded to students in the sum of 1000.00 each. It has been with generous, tax deductible contributions that these deserving seniors have been recognized.
