AUBURN — The Dion Family Foundation recently presented 10 scholarships to new students enrolling at St. Dominic Regional High School. Each of the 10 students selected will be eligible for $1,000 each of their four years at St. Dom’s.

The recipients are: Emily Albert and Kelsey Pinkham of Auburn; Brendan Mahns of Augusta; Jordan Charest, Courtney Costello, William Desmarais and Ashley Leonard of Lewiston; Garrett Boivin of Manchester; Sarah Trott of Standish; and Kyle Holtek of Topsham.

“Catholic education has been one of the cornerstones of my life,” said Don Dion, St. Dom’s class of 1972, president and founder of the Dion Family Foundation. “It is our goal to do something significant to insure that those who want a Catholic education have access to one. As an alumnus of both St. Michael’s College and St. Dom’s, this seemed a logical place to begin.”

The Dion Family Foundation was founded in 2006 by Donald R. Dion Jr. to
support the charitable endeavors of the Dion family. The family’s
goals are focused on helping students at St. Dominic Regional
High School and St. Michael’s College. Two other members of the Dion family, Don Dion Sr. (’47) and Joline Dion Bell (’77), are also St.
Dom’s alumni.
