Other scholarship application materials are available each year from April 1 to June 30 and are reviewed by the Stewardship Committee and voted on by the Board of Directors during the July meeting.  Recipients are notified by mid August and a check is mailed directly to the recipient's college.  Please review the guidelines for each scholarship carefully as each has different requirements. Once you have determined which scholarship(s) you qualify for, you are welcome to apply for those scholarships during our scholarship season.
