Mainely Character was conceived by Arnold Bushner, a local businessman, along with his business partner George Spino and several friends, including Annalee Rosenblatt and Judy Katzel, in the early 2000's. His daughter’s high school featured a character based curriculum and he appreciated its importance and effectiveness. It also inspired him personally to be a better father and member of his community. As his daughter contemplated a post-secondary education, he noticed that there were no scholarships available based on a student’s character. There were scholarships for academics, sports, music, the arts and financial need, but none solely based on character. He, along with two friends, Annalee Rosenblat and Judy Katzel, decided to remedy that and first Mainely Character Scholarship was awarded in 2001.
