SCHOLARSHIP SPOTLIGHT
Established in 1999, the Thomas Oliver & Louise Jordan Mulcahy Scholarship was created to help graduates from any Henderson County high school pursue higher education.
The Fund made its first award in 2000 and has since award more than $700,000 to over 60 students to attend a multitude of colleges and universities.
"Every time I register for classes I am reminded of how it wouldn’t be possible for me to be attending college if it weren’t for the Community Foundation.”
