The Rotary Club Memorial Scholarships are awarded to students that reside in the Plymouth- Canton school district. Qualifications for the scholarships as well as directions for filling out the application can be found by accessing the application at plymouthrotary.org
Over the past ten years we have awarded close to $300,000 to approximately 70 students which has had a dramatic effect on those students receiving the scholarships.
Our Scholarship Committee members are looking for well-rounded individuals, who have demonstrated academic success, leadership qualities and exhibit the characteristics of “Service Above Self.” This committee strongly considers candidates who have performed community service giving back to the community rather than to fulfill a club or school requirement. This character driven scholarship also requires that candidates can provide some examples of demonstrated leadership, empathy and service.
Making a recipient selection from among the applications submitted each year is very difficult. It is truly rewarding to realize that so many of our students are talented and contributing young citizens. The Rotary Club of Plymouth is pleased to be able to make these scholarships available to the deserving youth of our community.
