Alger Memorial Scholarship
The Algers were two incredible godparents who passed away too soon.
They raised their goddaughter after her mother fell ill, sacrificing their time, money, and energy to guide her toward a successful future. Both were active members of the community, volunteering and participating in social work.
This scholarship aims to support students who display the qualities of stellar work ethic, dedication to volunteerism, and eagerness to excel academically.
Any undergraduate or graduate student who has at least a 3.5 GPA and is dedicated to helping others, remaining resilient in the face of adversity, and upholding academic honor and achievement may apply for this scholarship.
To apply, tell us how you’ve proven to be successful in times of adversity and how you’ve helped those in need in your community.
Life is inherently hard. The challenge lies not within the obstacles we face, but the resilience and determination with which we face them with. How have you proven to be successful in times of adversity? How have you lent a hand to the members of your community who’ve needed help? Feel free to boast about yourself and your accomplishments!
