Civic club awards over $14,000 in scholarships

The Centerville Women’s Civic Club (CWCC) awarded $14,210 in grants to Sinclair Community College at its monthly luncheon, Sept. 28.

Fellows are residents of the Centerville-Washington Township community. Included in the $14,210 were funds received from the Becky Duffy Memorial Fund (Becky was the former treasurer of the CWCC), the Lowry Family Scholarship (Susan is a Washington Township Trustee), and the Shirley and Paul Heintz Fund. Shirley was the mayor of Centerville for a long time and Paul was her husband.

Steven Johnson, President of Sinclair Community College, spoke about the benefits Sinclair provides to the community. He also expressed his gratitude for the scholarships.

Zachary Beck, Sinclair Foundation Development Manager at South College, also deeply appreciates the scholarships. He said 69 students shared the money. Six of the students attended lunch. Everyone talked about their goals.

The CWCC is a group of 119 civic-minded women from the Centerville-Washington community who strive to raise funds for Sinclair Scholarships and for nonprofit organizations in our area. The club’s biggest fundraisers are a fall lunch/card party and a spring barn sale. Luncheon/card night will be held October 26th at Southminster Presbyterian Church and a spring barn sale will be held April 20th at Benham’s Grove.
