Kenneth Brown Memorial Scholarship
While traditional college degrees are the desire of many students, this one path isn’t right for everyone. Other programs, such as certificates in the trades, may be a better fit for students, especially those who like to work with their hands and those who are in search of a quicker education.
This scholarship aims to honor the memory of Kenneth Brown by supporting students who are passionate about pursuing further education in whichever form best works for them.
Any high school senior in Montgomery, Union, Anson, Stanly or Richmond County in North Carolina may apply for this scholarship if they are an organ donor. Students pursuing trade school are strongly encouraged to apply. Candidates should be self-motivated and driven.
To apply, tell us about your goals for your career, as well as why you’ve decided to be an organ donor. Additionally, upload an image of something you have worked on.
Please share what your future school and career goals are and why you have decided to be an organ donor.
