SWNA 46th Scholarship Awards Program Went Virtual!

On Sunday, Aug. 2, the Southwest Neighborhood Assembly Education and Scholarship Task Force (SWNA ESTF) held its 46th Annual Scholarship Awards Program and awarded a record-setting $40,500 in scholarships.  Via Zoom, nearly 150 viewers joined the pre-recorded virtual event, “Supporting Education – Building Community,” where 24 Southwest students shared their college plans and future aspirations in short videos and received scholarships ranging from $1,500 to $3,000. Viewers also watched the awarding of first-time scholarships in memory of three Southwest giants Dale MacIver, Coralie Farlee, and Helena Day Kirkland  and were invited to attend a virtual VIP reception after the Awards Program to discuss the impact of SWNA on the lives of students, the Southwest community, and the world. In case you missed it, you can find it here
