The Las Positas College Transfer Scholarship is our newest scholarship for 2024! This scholarship is for graduating students of Las Positas College transferring to a four-year college or university. This scholarship was created to help students with the higher cost of attending a four-year school – tuition, books, and school supplies. We understand that attending a four-year college or university – while broadening a student’s education – comes with additional costs.
The Las Positas College Transfer Scholarship annually provides $3,000 in funding to help cover the cost of tuition, books and supplies.
Requirements for Application:
Jean Cole was a founding member of our chapter in 1994. She served as a Board member in many different positions throughout her years of membership in Assistance League of Amador Valley.
She was a kind and compassionate member always focused on helping those in need, fundamentally a shy person although not evidenced by her hearty laugh. Her dedication to the community, along with her kind and caring heart, made Jean a friend to all.
Jean was awarded the Ada Edwards Laughlin Award in 2009. This award is given to very special individuals for their continued behind the scene service to their chapter and their community.
According to her husband, Bob, Jean’s legacy was always caring and offering assistance to those in need. This scholarship was created in her honor as Jean definitively would have supported the establishment of scholarships to help the next generation.
The Jean Cole Scholarship annually provides $3,000 in funding to help cover the cost of tuition, books and supplies.
