Rotary Club Scholarship Targets Student “Service Above Self”

The Rotary Club of Michigan City is offering two scholarship awards this year to students eligible (in the geographical area) to attend Michigan City High School. The scholarships are funded by the Foundation of the Rotary Club of Michigan City in honor of J.M. Ruby, Robert Schwartz, and A.K. Smith, and are given to high school seniors who exemplify Rotary’s motto “Service Above Self” in their lives and who are continuing their post-secondary education. The first scholarship provides $2,000 for each of two years (a total of $4,000). The second scholarship provides a one-time award of $2,000.

To be eligible for and receive these scholarships, a student must:

Have demonstrated “Service Above Self” in their community

Graduate from an accredited high school in La Porte County by June 30, 2008,
Be from the geographical area served by the Michigan City High School, and
Be continuing their post-secondary education beginning Fall of 2008.

The funds for these scholarships will be paid directly to the post-secondary educational institution which the applicants attend.
