LA GRANGE - The Fayette Community Foundation (FCF) is now accepting applications for their 2022-2023 scholarship funds.
Applications can be found on the FCF website or through any of the Fayette County high school counselors. FCF has a total of six scholarships available in 2023, five offered to graduating high school seniors and one limited to single mothers already enrolled in nursing school.
Fayette Community Foundation has two internal scholarships available to any student within an 80-mile radius of La Grange, the FCF General Scholarship and the FCF Technical Education Scholarship. Both offer a minimum of $1,000 and take community service, volunteer activities, financial need, a sound academic record, and the character of the applicant highly into account. Priority for both will be given to those not in the top ten percent, however, no applicant is excluded.
Homeschooled students are encouraged to apply to these scholarship opportunities as well.
Please reach out directly to the FCF by contacting Ashleigh Parks at info@faycofoundation. com for more information.
