SITM Awards 12 Scholarships to Local Students
Ten undergraduate and two graduate students received a combined total of $35,000 in Dreams Moving Forward scholarships on June 5. Recipients were selected for their focus on education and non-traditional fields of study, which range from agriculture to science, construction, information technology along with nursing and medicine. We have no doubt that these exceptional women will go on to excel in their education and careers, and that they will make a positive impact in their lives and their communities.
