Scholarship Fund

The Theiss Insurance Agency Scholarship Fund was established by Aaron and Carrie Theiss with the intent to exemplify their strong commitment to higher education while promoting the importance of student achievement and academic excellence in the college setting. The scholarship aims to help college-bound students with educational expenses during a time when economic hardships and growing costs of college tuition make it difficult for many families to manage the financial burdens of higher education. As a small business in the community, it is always the goal of Theiss Insurance to give back and show our appreciation to our policyholders; providing a scholarship opportunity for college hopefuls related to our clients is one way we can honor the wonderful people who choose us to handle their insurance needs.
