Funds awarded also included several special and sponsored scholarships:
Hunter Dickemper is the recipient of the Dobbs Tire & Auto Centers sponsored scholarship, awarded to a graduate who plans to attend Jefferson College and pursue a career in the automobile mechanics industry.
 
Kamryn Graff received the Ginny Goede Scholarship, established in 2002 as a tribute to Ginny’s untiring dedication to the Chamber, to helping others and to giving back to the community.
 
Olivia Gravette is the recipient of the inaugural Jeannie Braun Leadership Award, named in honor of the former FACC Executive Director for her 16 years of service to the organization.
 
Ryan Speckman received the Edward Jones – Matt Thomason sponsored scholarship, awarded to a graduate in pursuit of a career in the financial services industry.
