Newtown Scholarship Association was established as a nonprofit organization in 1937 to promote and advance the education of secondary school graduates residing in Newtown, by providing financial aid to deserving students. In 1937, a single $50 scholarship was awarded. Today, more than 70 students annually receive scholarships exceeding $200,000.

In its history, NSA has helped more than 1,000 students achieve a postsecondary education, and awarded more than $3 million in scholarships.
