As of 8/23/2024, the CFT has awarded 822 awards for a total of $2,3036,000. The program was named after inspirational CFT President Raoul Teilhet, who served the CFT as its president from 1968 to 1985.
Scholarships of $3,000 are awarded to students entering or attending a four-year university; $1,000 scholarships are awarded to students entering or attending a two-year school. The Raoul Teilhet Scholarship program is now accepting applications from high school seniors with a deadline of December 15th.
