Scholarships available for women volunteers
The Junior League of Elizabeth-Plainfield (JLEP) is pleased to announce that in 2024 we will be awarding three $4,000 scholarships to college bound women who reside in Union County and demonstrate a passion for volunteerism.
The JLEP believes that volunteerism is a vital force in our community, and we support young women who share our passion by awarding scholarships to college-bound high school seniors who have demonstrated a commitment to volunteer activities. The scholarships will be awarded in May 2024.
To be considered for a scholarship, applicants are asked to complete the application form, write a 300-to-400-word essay about their volunteer experiences, and provide two letters of recommendation. The application form is available on our website, jlepnj.org, or can also be obtained by sending a request via email to scholarship@jlepnj.org or by leaving a message with your address and/or email address at 908-709-1177.
The deadline for submitting applications is April 5, 2024. There will be a formal presentation of the scholarships to the recipients at the JLEP’s Annual Dinner on May 22, 2024.
