The Organization

     The Town of Sandwich is a seaside community of about 22,000 residents located in the northwestern corner of Cape Cod in Barnstable County, Massachusetts. Incorporated in 1639, Sandwich is the oldest town on Cape Cod and one of the oldest towns in the United States, settled nearly 150 years before the American Revolution. Its rich history is still apparent within the present day modern community, both architecturally and communally, making Sandwich an attractive place to both visit and to live.
Tobey House 1690      Many of Sandwich’s REALTORS^® call this beautiful community home. Some have been life-long Cape Codders and have raised their families here. Others have chosen Sandwich as their home, mesmerized by its ideal location, charm and uniqueness. All have contributed individually in a variety of ways to making their community an even better place to live.
     In 2004, the local REALTORS^® got together and decided that promoting higher education collectively would be a joint and unified way to support their favorite community. And so the various real estate offices that get together weekly at their local MLS meeting formed the Sandwich REALTORS^® Scholarship Fund.
     The purpose of the fund and it’s scholarship is two-fold: To support higher education by promoting interest in the architectural and social history of the Town of Sandwich as reflected in the town’s historic properties.
     The Sandwich REALTORS^® Scholarship Fund annually offers a scholarship to high school seniors who are residents of Sandwich and who attend Sandwich High School, Upper Cape Regional Vocational Tech, Sacred Heart, Falmouth Academy, Cape Cod Academy, Sturgis Charter School, Tabor Academy, Bishop Stang High School, or who are home schooled.
     Funds are raised by REALTORS^® personal contributions and by well-organized community fund-raisers.
