Are you about to enter your senior year of high school and be a member of the Boy Scouts of America in Tennessee? In that case, you should consider applying for the Lawrence Strader Boy Scouts of America Scholarship! Members of the Boy Scouts of America (BSA) from certain counties in Tennessee who come from low-income families and plan to enroll full-time in a four-year college are eligible for the scholarship. The East Tennessee Foundation, which is both a public charity and a community foundation, is the organization that will be awarding the scholarship. The residents of East Tennessee came together to form the foundation to enhance the quality of life for everyone in the region. They help students in Tennessee who need financial assistance by soliciting financial support from the public and administering the donations received. They aim to assist members of the Boy Scouts of America, Great Smoky Mountain Council, who have a low income with this scholarship. Those awarded the scholarship will pay $7,000 annually for up to four years while pursuing their degree. We strongly encourage you to apply if you are a member of the BSA and will be attending college in Tennessee this fall.
