The Howard H. Whitfield Masonic Scholarship, administered by the Community Foundation of New Jersey, is now accepting applications. Money clip
The scholarship is awarded to a college bound graduating high school senior from Red Bank Regional High School who has achieved a cumulative 3.0 or better GPA.
Applicant will be evaluated on academic performance, extra-curricular activities, community service, work (paid or unpaid), and demonstrated unmet financial need.
The Howard Whitfield Masonic Scholarship honors the memory and life-long achievements of Howard Whitfield. Out of necessity, Mr. Whitfield began working at age 13 to earn a livelihood and though always desirous of obtaining a higher education in liberal arts and/or the sciences he was unable to complete his formal education. Because of his deep and abiding love for Red Bank and Monmouth County, during his lifetime Mr. Whitfield established a scholarship to assist graduates of Red Bank Regional High School to develop their potential, achieve their goal of obtaining a post-secondary education (undergraduate degree), and become successful and productive adults.
