Baldwin EMC’s Charitable Foundation recently honored the program’s scholarship recipients for the 2022-2023 school year. Foundation board members held a luncheon in Summerdale to recognize all of the students, both first-time recipients and those whose scholarships were approved for renewal.
The 2022 Operation Round Up new scholarship recipients are: Ava Anderson, Kennedy Bass, Brian Carter Brunick, Georgia Byrd, Amberleigh Gibbs, Jocelyn Martin and Johanna Mondragon-Olvera.
The 2022 Operation Round Up scholarship renewal recipients are: Bayleigh Blackard, Michaela Brooke, Ashley Campos, Ayanna Carvin, Baleigh Collins, Sabrina Collins, Giulia Vasconcelos De Souza, Cali Hess, Nicollette Houston-Turner, Carleen Horace, Sofia Larez Mendoza, Cassidy Schneider and Zander Westphal
The grants were awarded using funds collected through Operation Round Up, a program in which participating Baldwin EMC members allow the co-op to round up their electric bills to the next highest dollar amount. The extra change is distributed for grants meeting the criteria of food, shelter, clothing, health, environment and education.
