The deadline to apply for these scholarships is fast approaching. March 31, 2025 is the final date to submit applications.
The St. Bernard Chapter of the Louisiana Volunteers for Family and Community, an organization under the auspices of the LSU Agriculture Center, is the sponsoring group. Four (4) $1,500.00 scholarships will be awarded for the Fall 2025 school year. This represents an increase of $500. per scholarship from 2024.
Since the SBVFC is an organization that seeks to promote volunteering in order to improve the lives of our community members and our families, the criteria for this scholarship highly emphasizes the student’s volunteer activities.
Graduating seniors attending any metro New Orleans high school, who are residents of St. Bernard Parish and are citizens of the United States of America, are eligible.
