2026 Scholarship Recipients
At our annual Scholarship luncheon, held on April 10, 2026, seven scholarships were awarded. Four students from State College of Florida — Victoria Bigham, Chloe Jarvis, Sara Sweetnich and Cameron Kiernan — will receive $1,500 a year for two years as long as they maintain eligibility.
Three students from Manatee Technical College — Bart Reek, Gracie Tillman and Elexis Richardson — will receive $500.
“It’s my mother’s words that continue to say, ‘Education is the key,'” McManus said. “‘I see the drive and the commitment in these students that could, in some cases, not be there because they all have financial need requirements.”
