The Men’s Club of Our Lady of Good Counsel Catholic Church, Folly Beach, South Carolina, established The Jimmy Steffel College Scholarship Fund in 2005. The 2020 scholarship, in the amount of $2,000.00, will be awarded to one (1) individual this year. Competition for this scholarship is open to children and grandchildren students (male and female) of registered and active members of Our Lady of Good Counsel Catholic Church. The scholarship will be awarded to the student who displays service and participation in the community, the church and the school. The student should also have a good academic standing in his/her class. For the student to be considered for the scholarship, the student should fill out the attached form with the requested information, and submit a letter of recommendation from a teacher, guidance counselor or coach. One scholarship will be awarded to a student who is planning to secure education beyond the high school level at an accredited college or university, and, in the judgment of Our Lady of Good Counsel Men’s Club Scholarship Committee, is deemed the worthiest. The scholarship may not be awarded to the same individual more than one time. An applicant may, however, apply for the scholarship more than once. For example, if an applicant was not awarded the scholarship in 2019 when they applied, this applicant could reapply in 2020, as long as they are continuing their quest for higher education, as outlined in the application.
