    About Rockwood Foundation Aka Westerhold Family Foundation

    The Westerhold (Rockwood) Family Foundation concentrates almost exclusively on individual higher-education scholarships, primarily in the Chicago area. Grants are small and targeted, often given repeatedly to the same recipients, suggesting a family-driven scholarship program supporting known students rather than institutional or broad community initiatives. The foundation appears to prioritize direct financial aid to help named individuals pursue college or vocational education.

    Who They Fund

    Giving Approach

    A concentrated, small-scale giving approach: many modest grants directed to a handful of repeat individual recipients rather than broad or institutional grantee diversification.
