Each year the Columbus Blue Jackets Foundation uses its unique resources to raise funds that help local non-profits whose mission is similar to our own: the health and wellness of local children. Organizations may request funds through our formalized grant process.

The Blue Jackets players in partnership with the CBJ Foundation established the John H. McConnell Scholarship in 2008 to provide one local high school senior a $10,000 scholarship in honor of the life and legacy of the team's late founder, John H. McConnell.

Each season, the CBJ Foundation awards a scholarship to a graduating high school senior who wishes to further his/her education beyond high school and has excelled in their commitment to hockey, in their leadership, and in the academic and extracurricular activities.
