Cass County Community Foundation President Deanna Crispen is pleased to announce Cass County’s 2023 Lilly Endowment Community Scholarship Program finalists:
- Grace Alpha, Pioneer High School
- Gracie Kitchell, Logansport High School
- Alexander Pawlowski , Pioneer High School
- Luna Tafolla, Logansport High School
- Halle VanCuren, Logansport High School
From the five finalists, one Cass County resident will be awarded the Lilly Endowment Community Scholarship which will pay their full four-year tuition at any Indiana college or university, plus required fees. The Lilly Endowment Community Scholarship recipients will also receive $900 per year for books and required equipment.
Students applying for the Cass County Lilly Endowment Community Scholarship are also encouraged to apply for all other scholarships where they meet the criteria. If the student selected as the recipient receives other scholarships or awards for tuition and fees, they will be required to either turn down the other awards or forfeit the Lilly and accept the other awards. At no time can the recipient receive both. If the student recipient, after being named, declines the Lilly Scholarship, it will be immediately awarded to the alternate.
Crispen shared, “Lilly Endowment Inc. continues to be a generous benefactor to our outstanding local students and their educational goals. This year’s recipient will be the 42nd Cass County Lilly Endowment Community Scholar. We are grateful for this incredible program that has motivated and provided funding for previous Lilly Endowment Community Scholars in Cass County since 1998.”
