The resources of the Fund, which will largely be provided by personal donations and community backing, will offer financial aid to worthy graduates of Snow Hill High School who, like Jesse, have demonstrated outstanding character and who have shown by their actions a profound kindness, sensitivity and the desire to make the world a better place. The scholarships are not limited to those who choose to pursue college degrees, but rather are devoted to any graduate who has maintained a 3.0 grade point average and who aspires to continue his or her education in any formal fashion at any recognized school.
