Staunton Augusta Junior Women’s Club believes strongly in education and supports that belief by awarding two scholarships to high school girls.
The community organization has served Staunton and Augusta County for more than 20 years as part of a global network of Women’s Clubs responsible for social service and change.
Each of the $1,000 scholarships will be awarded to a senior based on community involvement, academic achievement and overall merit. An application, brief essay and one reference are required to determine eligibility for a scholarship. The scholarship funds will be mailed directly to the winning applicants’ college or university of choice.
Deadline for application submission is April 15, 2025. The form will automatically submit to the SAJWC Scholarship Committee online. Applications may also be emailed to [email protected], or by mail to: Staunton Augusta Junior Women’s Club, PO Box 2253, Staunton, VA 24402 Attn: Scholarship Application.
The winning applicant will be notified shortly thereafter.
