The Johnson County Community Foundation (JCCF) will award three Lilly Endowment Community Scholarships in 2018.
The number of Lilly Endowment Scholarships available to each county in Indiana is based on population; in the most recent past, Johnson County has awarded two Lilly Scholarships. Recipients receive full tuition to the Indiana college or university of their choice and a $900 yearly stipend for required books and equipment.
βIt is with much pleasure that we announce that JCCF will now be able to award three of these prestigious scholarships to deserving students in our county. Receiving the Lilly Endowment Community Scholarship is an immense honor for the students who are selected.β said Stephanie Fox, program officer for grants and scholarships at JCCF.
Online applications for the 2018 Lilly Scholarship will opened on July 24, 2017 and closed at midnight on August 25, 2017.
