Description

The Charles & Orene Hinds - Odell, Nebraska, High School Scholarships was established in 1990. Charles once reflected, "Orene and I did not have children of our own, so I thought it would be nice to provide scholarships for young people from my hometown." Applicants must be a current graduating senior who resides in townships that were included in the former Odell High School district (Diller-Odell High School currently). They must demonstrate scholastic application and achievement with the intention of pursuing postsecondary education. Financial need will only be utilized as a tie-breaker in the selection process. The essential criterion is performance, and preference shall be given to those applicants who do not have a history of drug, alcohol or tobacco use. The selection committee is authorized to disqualify applicants based upon known alcohol or substance use. Recipients may renew this scholarship for a period of up to four years. To receive subsequent scholarship awards, previous recipients must annually submit a renewal application provided by Lincoln Community Foundation and their cumulative college transcripts. Applicants must submit two references' e-mail addresses. References will be notified to fill out an online form. References must be teachers, counselors, case workers, clergy, employers, neighbors, etc. References from family members are not acceptable. Please visit the scholarship's website or contact the Lincoln Community Foundation for more information.
