香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 Set to Match Boys & Girls Club Scholarships

The Fort Smith Boys & Girls Club honored its 2023-2024 scholarship recipients on Monday, June 12, 2023, during its June board meeting and celebratory luncheon. There are 34 recipients this year, including 13 new recipients and 21 renewal recipients whose awards total $50,000. 

Since 1985, the FSBGC College Scholarship Program has granted 947 awards to 387 individual club members, totaling over $1 million in assistance. Applicants must have participated in FSBGC activities as members or volunteers for a minimum of two years, and financial need, community service and academic excellence are key components of selections. 

The scholarship program is one of the largest of any Boys & Girls Club organization in the country. 

鈥淥ur scholarship program has grown immensely since the first scholarships awarded. Thanks to the support of our dedicated donors and the hard work of our members, we look forward to growing the program to serve even more Club Kids in the years to come,鈥 shared Beth Presley, CEO of the Fort Smith Boys & Girls Clubs. 

This year鈥檚 recipients will attend institutions across the nation, from the University of Arkansas-Fort Smith to John Hopkins University, and will major in a breadth of fields, including Dental Hygiene, Business, Elementary Education, Engineering, and Neuroscience. 

Students who will be continuing their education locally will see their FSBGC scholarships matched at 100 percent through the 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 Foundation. The university鈥檚 new match initiative launched this year, demonstrating the institution鈥檚 commitment to support the civic organizations that drive the River Valley forward. This year, both new and continuing scholarship recipients will receive matches, though in future years the 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 match will apply to the first-year recipients only, aiming to help address the financial challenges of the first year in school, and help students reach the second year increase in Arkansas Academic Challenge Scholarship awards.

Blake Rickman, vice chancellor of advancement at 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播, said, "These scholarships are game changers. They open a world of opportunity for students who might not otherwise have been able to access higher education, and who will go on to be major players in our regional economy.鈥 

Rickman is a Fort Smith native and a former Boys & Girls Club member and scholarship recipient. 鈥淚t's incredibly rewarding to see these young people taking their first steps into their future careers, and it is so energizing to know that the ten students in this group who will be attending 香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播 are the future leaders of our community.鈥 

鈥淲e put a lot of time into growing this program and ensuring that the kids receive the support they need. We are proud to serve Fort Smith youths with this gift,鈥 said Hugh Maurras, Chair of the scholarship program committee.
