The workshop will include information about the Lilly Endowment Community Scholarship, awarded to a student who lives in Shelby County, as well as other scholarship opportunities administered by the Blue River Community Foundation.

There will also be information on writing an expressive scholarship essay; maintenance do’s and don’ts; choose the ideal person to recommend the student; gather guidance for completing specific sections of the application; and hear suggestions from a panel of BRCF alumni regarding the transition from high school to college.

Interested students will only need to attend one session since both will cover the same information.

Each session will be limited to the first 20 registered students.

Donors make monetary rewards possible for the 92 active scholarship funds.

The 2022 scholarship recipients included 134 students who received more than $439,000.
