PAST...

The Raymond F. Gates, Jr. Memorial Scholarship Fund was established in 1976 in memory of Raymond F. Gates, Jr. following his tragic death in an automobile accident. Mr. Gates was the Executive Vice President of the Connecticut Association of REALTORS®.

Originally the fund was intended to assist Mr. Gates' children through college. Once this objective was met, the fund was expanded to benefit the children of REALTORS®, REALTOR-ASSOCIATES®, local Board Association Executives and CAR Staff.

Over the past 32 years, children of REALTORS® have been awarded scholarships totaling more than $520,500!

PRESENT...

Students are now able to apply for one of two scholarship categories: academic excellence, based solely upon academic factors or scholastic achievement, based upon academic factors, extracurricular activities and an essay.

FUTURE...

The Gates Scholarship is entering a new phase by initiating fundraising efforts to stabilize the fund and eventually increase the amount of scholarships awarded. With the ever-rising costs of college today, our goal is to strengthen this program and thereby expand our ability to "Invest in America's Future".
