OTTAWA — The Starved Rock Country Community Foundation has announced the availability of scholarship applications.
The Carol and Dick Janko Scholarship was created for recent and upcoming high school graduates who are enrolled in an accredited university or college for the fall semester, and who can demonstrate recent studies or work related activities focused on entrepreneurship. The five $1,000 scholarships reflect the Janko family's commitment to youth, education, economic development and philanthropy. Applications for the scholarships are available at all high schools in LaSalle, Livingston, Bureau and Putnam counties, and at www.srccf.org.
B&B SmartWorx, powered by Advantech, has established The Internet of Things (IoT) Scholarship for Engineering, Science and Technology.
