The Rotary Club of Statesboro held its annual “Service Above Self” Scholarship Awards Day on Wednesday.
The club’s Scholarship Committee awarded 21 scholarships of $1,000 each to students attending schools in Bulloch County who will each be attending a college in the state of Georgia.
“These students each bring a superior level of academic achievement as well as unique interests and volunteer activities,” said Steve Healy, chairman of the Scholarship Committee. “With all the negative press that students today receive, it is inspiring to me to present to you these students who have already displayed their sincere interest in making our community, our country and our world better places to live.”
During the meeting, each of the attending scholarship recipients introduced their guests and briefly spoke about themselves, their service activities and their career goals.
The scholarship winners represent five different high schools in Bulloch County.
