Education Scholarships and Professional Educator Grants
In addition to supporting our Charitable Partners, RWC’s yearly fundraising efforts also provide scholarships for a number of high school seniors and funding for grants for professional educators. Helping with college expenses, providing new equipment or learning tools for a teacher - RWC has always been dedicated to education as a key to our mission and a promise to our community.
Education Scholarships are awarded to graduating high school seniors planning to attend college/university. The scholarships are based on outstanding academic achievement, leadership qualities, and community involvement. A graduating senior must either reside or go to school in Fulton County north of the Chattahoochee River.
In addition, each year the Roswell Woman's Club recognizes two outstanding graduating seniors with the following Special Awards:
- The Helen Owens Leadership Award - Kindness, Strength and Hard Work. Helen was a 55+ year member of Roswell Woman's Club. She served our club and community with grace and hard work.
- The Tillie Wood Humanitarian/Community Service Award - Pioneer and Role Model. Tillie was a founding member of the Roswell Historical Society, as well as the Roswell Woman's Club. She was a dedicated teacher, starting the first kindergarten in Roswell.
Professional Educator Grants are awarded based upon a number of criteria including need, purpose and overall impact of the funding. Professional Educator Grants are awarded to teachers in Fulton County schools north of the Chattahoochee River, at all levels of education, from elementary through high school.
