Because of the generosity of Sylacauga businesses and citizens, year-over-year Sylacauga is among the top preliminaries in the state of Alabama for awarding the most cash scholarships and in-kind donation. This support has afforded the young women of Sylacauga to further their education while offsetting, if not fully covering our college education. With the skyrocketing cost of post-secondary education, these scholarships lift a huge burden for the young women and their families.
It is our mission to continue to grow the college scholarship offerings, dual enrollment and career-ready financial support, as well as cash scholarships so that each candidate who applies will receive scholarships that will span well beyond the cost of their books.
If a cash scholarship is not a fit for your business or if you would like to also offer a product or service, in-kind donations are of great value. A list of in-kind donations needed or a sampling of donations is below.
In return, donors will receive recognition across all our social media platforms, featured on MissSylacauga.com for the full year between now and the next competition, a spotlight in the program book, two tickets to a VIP Reception which includes a meet & greet with Miss Alabama Tiara Pennington, and recognition during the night of competition.
