Description

The Arnold H. White Memorial Scholarship was established in 2004 by Mr. White's estate. Upon his death in 2004, he left a portion of his estate to the Lincoln Community Foundation to provide scholarships. He knew the importance of a good education and wanted to help students fulfill their dreams of attaining a college degree and becoming active community citizens. Beginning in 2024, this fund will serve as a partner fund to the Lincoln Community Foundation Student Success Scholarship Fund in which award amounts from many scholarship funds are pooled to create meaningful, renewable awards for Lancaster County students. Recipients must be current graduating high school seniors or former graduates of public or private high schools in Lancaster County, NE or GED graduates residing in Lancaster County, NE; planning to attend an accredited, two-year or four-year nonprofit college or university with a preference for those attending institutions within the state of Nebraska. Financial need may be considered. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information.
