YMCA Faith Scholarship recipients are approaching a deadline

While appearing on Sheridan Media’s Public Pulse, Sheridan County YMCA Executive Director Liz Cassiday announced a deadline is approaching for those students who were issued logbooks for this year’s Faith Scholarship.

Introduced in January of 2022, the Faith Scholarship is a $1,000 scholarship offered to any student of an institution of higher learning, including trade schools and certificate programs. There are no academic requirements to qualify for the scholarship. The requirements are based on expanding faith.

The Faith Scholarship only requires that applicants attend 10 church services of varying faiths. The goal is to strengthen one’s own faith and broaden their horizons. Each visitation is logged and signed by the faith leaders in a hand bound book issued by the YMCA.

Cassiday said it has been a pleasure through the years to visit with returning students who gained so much from the experience of visiting other church services. The log books need to be turned into the YMCA by Oct. 31.
