“We always look forward to awarding scholarships to high school seniors. These scholarships recognize the accomplishments the students have achieved in the last four years,” said Executive Director Octavia Yoder. “This year’s graduating seniors have been met with some unique circumstances and challenges. We can only imagine the disappointment of their school year ending during this national emergency. We know they will rise to the challenge as they take their next steps in education. We are grateful to the individuals, families, and businesses who created these scholarship funds and have worked alongside LaGrange County Community Foundation. We look forward to welcoming new donors and funding more students as the program continues to grow.”
