The Sun Lakes Rotary Club (SLRC) extends congratulations to the winners of the Club’s 2021 Service Above Self Scholarships:
  • Lily Grace Steenhard, Queen Creek’s Casteel High School – Lily is considering political science studies. 
  • Aris Ahu, Chandler’s Hamilton High School – Aris is considering information technology studies.  
  • The Club’s 2021 Vocational Scholarship was awarded to Adrianna Camacho, Chandler High School - Adrianna is considering nursing studies.
 
The $2,000 scholarship payments will be sent directly to the school/university the student will be attending this Fall. 
 
A panel of judges reviewed and scored applications from area high school seniors. Each application included a 300 word essay, which provided the student’s beliefs and understanding of what “service above self” means; teacher recommendations; and, student academic standing data.  Also, the Rotary Club’s selections were based on each student’s exhibiting exemplary acts of service and character. 
 
Sun Lakes Rotary Club, chartered in 1986 with Rotary International, is a community leadership organization made up of men and women from local businesses, professional, education, civic and emerging leaders.  Rotary International has over 35,000 member clubs worldwide, with a membership of 1.2 million individuals, known as Rotarians.
