Shelter Insurance Foundation scholarships awarded
June 10, 2020
Cassville Shelter Insurance agent, Terri DeGraffenreid, is pleased to announce the selected recipients of the Shelter Insurance Foundation scholarships, an opportunity for area high school seniors which she sponsors and partially funds.
Every year, a committee of local high school officials and community leaders considers each applicant’s scholastic achievements, educational goals, citizenship, moral character and participation in school and community activities as the basis for selection of local scholarship awards. The scholarship is given without regard to race, disability, religion, national origin or gender of applicants.
Based on recommendations of the committee, this spring, the Shelter Insurance Foundation awarded one $2,000 scholarship to Kennedy Parnell, a graduate of Cassville High School, and a second $2,000 scholarship to Emily Gonzalez, a graduate of Wheaton High School.
Beginning the fall after graduation, recipients’ may direct the scholarship funds toward tuition, fees or campus housing, for any course of study leading to an academic degree at any accredited college or university. The scholarship will be paid directly to the schools the recipients select.
One purpose of the Shelter Insurance Foundation is to fund scholarships within the operating territory of Shelter Insurance. It is sponsored by the Shelter Insurance Companies headquartered in Columbia, Missouri. Shelter offers auto, home, life, farm and business insurance services via a network of local insurance agents in our operating territory.
