“Our goal going into this was to choose students who were able to balance academics with extracurricular activities, community service, etc.,” Gardner said. “We wanted to reward students who are motivated, giving and determined. The students we chose demonstrated all those things and more.”

Applicants were required to fill out a scholarship form which included their GPA, class rank, extracurricular activities, volunteer hours, etc., as well as two short answer essay questions.
