Normal – Heartland Community
College Foundation raised $10,000 for student scholarships at the
inaugural Lincoln Scholarship Scramble golf outing May 15 at Lincoln
Elks Country Club in Lincoln, IL. Twelve teams participated.
Foundation Board Director Elizabeth Wrage called the event a
success. “The outing was a great day of fun, comradery and purpose,”
she said. “I appreciated meeting people who had a genuine interest
in Heartland Community College and the opportunity it creates for
Lincoln and Logan County students.”
In celebration of the event’s success, the HCC Foundation
established a full-tuition scholarship for Logan County students.
The Logan County Rising Scholars Scholarship covers tuition and fees
for up to 36 credit hours during the academic year. Logan County
students interested in the scholarship should visit
www.hccfoundation.org. Applications for the 2015-16 school year are
due July 1. Those interested can contact the Foundation at (309)
268-8110 with any questions.
“We appreciate the amazing support the Lincoln and Logan County area
have shown,” said Chris Downing, executive director of development.
“We will strive to create access for students across the area and
help them reach their career and educational goals.”
The Heartland Community
College Foundation wishes to express its sincere appreciation to all
the local businesses that helped make this effort possible with
their sponsorship.
