FJWC Scholarship – A quick reminder for Seniors and Parents of Seniors –
All senior student volunteer hours must be completed by the time your scholarship application is SUBMITTED. Applications typically open in late February and close in late March so aim to have all of your hours completed by then…otherwise you might miss out on scholarships. There is plenty of time to get hours but wanted to flag this with all of the pumpkin unloading and fall festival opportunities coming up! Any questions reach out to Tara Hemmer, Scholarship Chair, 215-514-7719
