LBCA Foundation Awards Almost $300K in Scholarships


Thanks to the incredible support and generosity of The Lake Burton Civic Association (LBCA) members, this year's scholarship program has profoundly impacted the lives of deserving students and their families. The LBCA Foundation is pleased to announce that it has awarded a record number of scholarships to Rabun County students, almost $300,000 this year.

This year, the LBCA awarded five one-year scholarships of $2,500 each, ten tech scholarships of $1,500 each, 15 four-year scholarships of $14,000 each to students of Rabun High School, and five four-year scholarships to other high schoolers in Rabun County.

"We are so grateful to the members of the LBCA for their generous support of our scholarship program," said Elizabeth Gill, president of the LBCA. "These scholarships make a real difference in the lives of our students, and we are proud to be able to help them achieve their educational goals."

Donations from members and friends of the association fund the LBCA Foundation Scholarship Program. To be eligible for a scholarship, students must be residents of Rabun County and have a minimum GPA of 3.0. Applicants must also submit an essay describing their academic goals and how the scholarship would help them achieve them.
