Applicants for the Verona Lions Club scholarship should demonstrate the community service that the club strives to achieve.
The Verona Lions Club will present three cash awards of $1,000 each to Verona residents graduating high school this year who best exhibit service to their school, church or temple, and/or the town of Verona. The Lions Club award criteria is not based on academic achievement or financial need but rather exclusively on volunteer service which is the heart of the Lions Club’s belief and credo: “We Serve”.
Applicants from Verona High School should apply by providing a list of their volunteer service to Diane Newman in the Guidance Department by no later than Friday April 29, 2015. The list of volunteer service should include a brief description of the service and the time involved.
Other Verona residents graduating from high school who would like to be considered send their list of service as described above to the Verona Lions Club, PO Box 38, Verona, NJ 07044; it should be postmarked no later than April 29th
Per Lions President Frank Ricciardi, “the following is a non-exclusive list of volunteer service examples that the Verona Lions believe form the basis for our awards”:
- Service to the administrative offices of your school
- Service as a member of your school’s student government
- Service to a fund-raising effort to benefit you school, church or community
- Service to a social function committee
