The Shelter Insurance Foundation awarded a $1,500
scholarship to Abigail Jones, a graduate of Mount Pulaski High
School and a $1,500 scholarship to Jane Turner of Lincoln High
School. Shelter Agent Corey Leonard sponsors and partially funds the
scholarships.
Beginning the fall after the recipient’s high school graduation
Abigail Jones and Jane Turner can direct the scholarship funds
toward tuition, fees or campus housing for any course of study and
leading to an academic degree at any accredited college or
university.
A committee of local high school officials and community leaders
selected the local recipients. The committee considered each
applicant’s scholastic achievements, educational goals, citizenship,
moral character, and participation and leadership in school and
community activities. The scholarships are given without regard to
race, disability, religion, national origin or gender of applicants.
