Applications are now available for the 2022 Yazoo Community Scholarship.
All high school students who attend a Yazoo County school who are continuing their education past the high school level are eligible to apply for this scholarship. Scholarships will be awarded to the most deserving applicants made by an anonymous selection committee. Amount awarded is based on donations received by the scholarship fund. The deadline for applications to be received is Friday, April 15, 2022.
High school students who are in need of assistance can pick up an application from their high school counselor or Connie Rush at Bank of Yazoo City. Applications are also available to print on the Junior Auxiliary website at JAYazooCity.com. Completed applications should be mailed to Connie Rush, Bank of Yazoo City, P.O. Box 600, Yazoo City, MS 39194.
JA needs the support of local businesses and residents to donate continuously and generously. The club could not offer this opportunity to graduating seniors without the help of the community. One hundred percent of the funds donated will be awarded to deserving students.
For individuals who would like to honor a parent, spouse, grandparent, friend, or employee can send a contribution to the Yazoo Community Scholarship Fund. This is an excellent way to show appreciation and give deserving students help with the rising cost of tuition and books. Mail donations by Saturday, April 16, 2022, to Connie Rush, Bank of Yazoo City, P.O. Box 600, Yazoo City, MS 39194.
Please do not miss this wonderful opportunity to contribute to the education of the young, bright minds of our community. Any amount of donation will be very much appreciated. Thank you and Good Luck to all of those that apply!
