I’m excited to share news of the 2024-2025 Student of Success Scholarship. State of Success, Inc., is offering two $1,000 scholarships for Wilson County high school seniors. One will be awarded to a senior at Fike High School and one to a senior at any other Wilson County high school. The scholarship is a fantastic opportunity for students who are committed to making a positive impact in their communities through leadership and engagement in social causes.
Lane Street Project’s own Dr. Portia Newman serves as State of Success’ Education Director and Scholarship Committee Chair. Dr. Newman will be at Odd Fellows Cemetery on L.S.P.’s 22 February 2025 service day to give back to the community while raising awareness about this incredible opportunity for students.
