Scholarships and Memorials

Several memorial funds have been established at First Presbyterian Church of Bakerstown over the years. Most are in memory of past members of FPCB and are designated for funding areas in which the individuals had a unique interest. Most of the funds are administered by separate committees. The committee members review any applications and distribute funds under the guidelines of each fund.

All funds are open to receive additional contributions and are generally available to members or friends of First Presbyterian Church of Bakerstown.

In addition, the General Assembly created the Presbyterian Foundation in 1799 to support mission work and the donors who make it possible. From such humble beginnings over 200 years ago, the Presbyterian Foundation is charged by the General Assembly with the responsibility and accountability for raising money, and today, through New Covenant Trust Company, providing trust and investment management services, for the mission of the entire denomination.
