Success StoryLaRue County 4-H Scholarships



LaRue County 4-H Scholarships

Author: Misty Wilmoth

Planning Unit: LaRue County CES

Major Program: Leadership

Plan of Work: 4-H Leadership

Outcome: Intermediate Outcome

The LaRue County 4-H Council offers an annual scholarship to a local graduating high school senior in the amount of $500.  In 2025, the passing of a 4-H supporter and past volunteer, Patricia Durham provided the opportunity for individuals to contribute to the scholarship in memory of Mrs. Durham.  The family members asked for donations to be made to LaRue County 4-H for the purpose of a scholarship named in her memory.  Donations from twenty-six individuals and businesses made it possible to offer the scholarship to five graduating seniors instead of the usual one per year.  This year's graduating class had a significant number of active 4-H members.  The donations made it possible to help a total of five students with educational expenses for college totaling $2,500.  Three of the students will be attending universities and two will be attending community college.  The scholarship was an excellent way to remember the volunteer who passed while helping deserving members achieve their educational goals.  Scholarship presentations were made at the annual senior awards night with the senior class and their families present.  Four family members of Patricia Durham attended and helped with the scholarship award presentations.
