WILTON, NY— Kelly’s Angels, the Capital Region charity devoted to helping local children and families who are facing loss and grief, is thrilled to award $52,000 in scholarships to 29 2025 high school graduates. 

The winners were chosen for overcoming adversity and showing a commitment to helping others. 

“We are excited to give out scholarships to more high schools and students than ever before,” said Mark Mulholland, president and founder of Kelly’s Angels. “The tremendous support that our all-volunteer organization receives has enabled us to expand this meaningful program.”

 In addition, Nemer Motor Group has partnered with Kelly’s Angels for a second year to give a $10,000 scholarship to a Lake George graduate who will be attending SUNY Adirondack. Hailey Mackrodt is this year’s scholarship winner.
