One of the more robust scholarship funds at Southwestern Community College just received a substantial boost.
The Robert P. Holding Foundation recently added $25,000 to the First Citizens Bank Endowed Scholarship Fund – pushing the total value over the $80,000 mark.
That ensures more deserving students than ever before will be able to receive scholarships to SCC in the years ahead. The Robert P. Holding Foundation is named for the man who is considered instrumental in the founding and development of First Citizens Bank, which was established in 1898.
“This is the third straight year that the Robert P. Holding Foundation has made a significant investment in our students, and we are truly grateful for this support,” said Dr. Don Tomas, SCC President.
The First Citizens Bank Endowed Scholarship is available to any student attending SCC.
