| Description Program Srvc Accom | Our Alumni Chapter provides scholarships to local students attending Mississippi State University (MSU). We provided 8 scholarships this year. $12,000 in scholarship funds for FY2020 was paid from our endowment account held at MSU. Our organization provided the remaining $2,000 for scholarships to make a total of $14,000. The combined funds of $14,000 was used to award (5) $2,000 scholarships to Senior high school students who attend high schools within the Hinds, Madison, and Rankin County areas. We also awarded (2) $1,000 scholarships to Junior College transfer students. In addition, we awarded one student the Carlie Nichols Scholarship in the amount of $2,000. Our scholarships are meant to aid deserving students who want to attend MSU, but are in need of financial assistance. Scholarships are awarded based on financial need, grades, ACT scores, leadership ability, and character. The majority of monies raised by our Chapter are used to fund scholarships. Our long term goal is to be able to raise more funds through donations/contribution and fund raising to provide additional scholarships for future students. In FY2020, our long term goal was hindered by the Coronavirus Pandemic. Our organization was not able to have any fundraisers after the pandemic started. In 2019, our organization pledged to establish a $25,000 Carlie Nichol's endowment fund within 5 years. In 2020, our organization completed our pledge with a final payment of $2,000 thanks to our donors and fundraising efforts. It is a long-term goal of our organization to continue to donate to this endowment which will provide future scholarships to future students. | DescriptionProgramSrvcAccomTxt |
