Malta Sunrise Rotary Club Offering Two Scholarships

MALTA — The Malta Sunrise Rotary Club will award two scholarships in 2025 to two graduating high school seniors who live in the Town of Malta. The first-place selected student will receive a one-time scholarship of $1,000. Additionally, a one-time $500 scholarship will be awarded to the runner-up finalist.

Applicants should demonstrate strong involvement in community service and excellence in their core curriculum education as shown by a minimum 3.0 high school GPA. Consideration will be given to financial need as shown by the Student Aid Index (SAI) from the FAFSA. The applicants must reside in the Town of Malta, including the Village of Round Lake. This may include students enrolled at Ballston Spa High School, Shenendehowa Central Schools, any accredited private or parochial school, and students participating in an accredited home-school program, as long as their legal residence is within Malta.

The applicants should plan to attend any accredited university, college, community college, or vocational/technical institute beginning in the fall of 2025. Payment will be made directly to the student upon receipt of the award.

The deadline for receipt of all required application materials is March 22. Applications are available in school counseling offices and/or by inquiry to Malta Sunrise Rotary Scholarship Chair Paul Phillips: (518) 796-5174 or email paulandjeanp@yahoo.com.
