Junior League of Elizabeth Plainfield
The Junior League of Elizabeth Plainfield (JLEP) awarded four $4,000 scholarships at their Annual Dinner held on May 22, 2024 to college bound women who demonstrated a passion for volunteerism. The scholarship recipients are: Sienna Colon of Elizabeth, NJ who will be attending Pennsylvania State University, Natalie Fitzgerald of Westfield, NJ who will be attending University of Florida, Bushra Imran of Linden, NJ who will be attending Villanova University, and Katelyn Lester of Fanwood, NJ who will be attending the University of Texas, Austin.
Bernadette Houston, chair of the JLEP Scholarship Committee said “We were amazed and impressed by the many scholarship applications for this year’s program. It was no easy task to select the top four candidates. The level of volunteerism, while maintaining high grades and sports involvement, shows dedication and enthusiasm, as well as good time management. Hard work and a focus on our communities all bode well for the future success of these young women, and hopefully these are future volunteers with the Junior League of Elizabeth Plainfield.”
