Katie's Alcove Scholarship
Kaitlin was a beloved daughter, friend, and community member whose young life was cut short but never forgotten.
Katie loved fashion, her family, and her career in the cosmetology industry. She was unapologetically herself, and she loved life and embraced it to the fullest. Katie found fulfillment in her work and would have wanted to give others the opportunity to be themselves and pursue their passions.
This scholarship seeks to honor the life of Kaitlin by supporting students who are dedicated to pursuing their dreams and living authentically.
Any high school senior or trade school student who is pursuing cosmetology, hairdressing, coloring, or styling may apply for this scholarship opportunity. Applicants must be kind, outgoing, and family-oriented and must love pets.
