PEO marguerite daisies were in full bloom as they were presented to Polson High School seniors Olivia Jore and Alyssa Orien along with $1,000 Chapter AI Memorial Scholarships on Senior Signing Day.
Jore plans to attend Spokane Community College to study clinical psychology on a softball scholarship. Orien aims to study engineering, either at Montana State or the University of Hawaii/Manoa.
PEO is a philanthropic organization that promotes the education of women world-wide. This is accomplished through scholarships, grants, awards, loans and the stewardship of Cottey College.
Although P.E.O. is an international organization, the scholarship comes from Chapter AI, a Polson chapter that has a designated fund to award local young women pursuing higher education.
This memorial scholarship honors Myrtle Sweet, Faye Harris, Doris Herbert and Sarah Jane Hanson, past members of Chapter AI who bequeathed funds to help local women achieve their highest aspirations.
