The Peter Ereifej Memorial Scholarship

Awarded to a deserving senior who has shown exceptional integrity, kindness, and respect towards others.  Who does the right thing when no one is looking, and their good deeds are known by their impact on others? This senior appreciates the good in others and sees the potential in the smallest of ideas.  Acts of kindness are natural to them. Their actions are not motivated by the purpose of building a college resume, fulfilling a requirement, or establishing a popular fellowship. They lead from behind and encourage others to bring out the best in them.   They project positivity and believe that by living their life this way, they are making the world better and motivating others to do the same.    They show up .  

​

 We have plenty of scholarships focused on personal achievements such as merit and athletic scholarships.  Be Kind focuses on what one does for others.
