Attention, high-school seniors: The Killingworth Ambulance Association is accepting applications for its 2023 collegiate scholarships … with one stipulation.
All applicants must reside in Killingworth.
Each year the KAA offers scholarships to graduating seniors enrolled in private or public high schools. But they’re only available to residents of Killingworth who plan on continuing their education at two-or-four-year institutions.
In addition, applicants must meet the following criteria: 1) Major in the medical, emergency services (fire, police, etc.) or other allied fields; 2) engage in community service and 3) maintain a GPA of 3.0 or higher in their high-school careers.
The KAA awarded 16 scholarships the past five years, including nine in the last three.
Applications are available at Haddam-Killingworth, Mercy and Xavier High Schools, as well as on the KAA website, and must be postmarked no later than Friday, April 14. Recipients will be named in June when they’re awarded scholarship certificates, with checks issued upon completion of their first semesters of secondary school.
For more information, please contact the KAA at (860) 663-2450 or log on to killingworthambulance.org.
