Paul Keyes Memorial Scholarship Grant

The Paul Keyes Memorial Scholarship honors a dedicated individual who participated in various sports and served in the Navy. Established by his family, this scholarship supports students pursuing careers in skilled trades, reflecting Paul's belief in the importance of trade professions. A single, non-renewable award of $500 will assist with educational costs for students enrolled in accredited programs in Wisconsin. This initiative aims to inspire future generations to excel in their trades.

The Paul Keyes Memorial Scholarship was established in loving memory of Paul by his family members. During his years at Neenah High School, Paul participated in various sports, including track and field, and at one point held the pole vault record. After graduating from high school in 1978, Paul enlisted in the Navy, where he spent time in multiple locations, including Japan and California.
Paul believed there needs to be more people who work in trades. To follow in Paul's footsteps, it is his family’s desire to help those in the future to practice a trade. This scholarship is open to any student who has a strong desire to work in the trades and become great at what they do.
