GFWC Legacy Awards
GFWC Legacy is a women's service organization established in 2000. The club's objectives are to develop the intellectual, civic and social interests of its members; to advance the welfare of the community through volunteer service, and to promote the progress and work of its parent organization the General Federation of Women's Clubs, the oldest women's volunteer organization in the United States. GFWC Legacy awards a $500 scholarship to a female senior student based on volunteerism and community service. The deadline for application is February 8th, 2016. While academic achievement and financial aid will be taken into consideration during the selection process, they are by no means the primary requirements or selection. Major consideration will be given to those applicants exhibiting a spirit of volunteerism and self-motivation to make a positive difference in their world. Please don't hesitate to contact our Scholarship Chairman Becky Vansant at 256-694-8035 or bvansant63@gmail.com with any questions or concerns.
