The awards are based on GPA, application and essay, community service, interview, financial need and years of being a Key Club member.
The Labelle Kiwanis Foundation was established in 1987 and began awarding scholarships to Labelle High School students in the early 1990’s.
The Labelle Kiwanis Foundation has awarded between $15,000 and $27,000 to Labelle High School Students since 2008 based on funds available from net sales at the Kiwanis Thrift Store and number of students applying. We have distributed over $245,000.00 in monies to our graduating students and students continuing their education or adults starting their education since 2008. The awards that are not collected by the seniors within four years of their award are disbursed to students that apply for our Adult Scholarship in the summer.
Donations and purchases at the Labelle Kiwanis Thrift Store is vital to the operation of the Kiwanis Club. These funds are given back to this community and most of all to local youth.
