We celebrate our scholarship recipients! 🎉

We are thrilled to announce that our scholarship committee will award 33 Lynn Davis Scholarships in the amount of $1,000 each to college-bound students from across the Blue Ridge region of Virginia and North Carolina!

This $33,000 investment in the next generation of Blue Ridge leaders adds to the $95,000 we’ve awarded since we launched the scholarship program in 2023.

Named in honor of our co-founder Lynn Davis,  these scholarships support high-achieving students who plan to pursue a degree in environmental or cultural studies with a goal of enhancing the quality of life in our beloved region. We look forward to announcing the names of the recipients in the coming days, and thank the work of our scholarship committee for its time in judging the 60+ applications for this year’s awards!
