The Stephanie R. McCullough Scholarship will be awarded to a high school senior that will be attending a Historical Black College or University. This student must be a resident of the District of Columbia and attending a high school within the District of Columbia or Greenville, South Carolina
In 2001 Ms. McCullough lost her battle to lung cancer and left behind a wonderful legacy. Before her illness she was known as a hard worker, the lady with the big smile and warm spirit. She stressed the importance of education and leadership to her two children. Her daughter went on to attend South Carolina State University where she received her bachelor’s degree in Criminal Justice with a minor in Psychology and has also obtained a Masters in General Psychology from the University of Phoenix. Her son attended Claflin University where he obtained his degree in Sports management with a minor in business and wants to pursue a career as a Sports Agent. In her honor, we would like to continue her legacy by rewarding a student with a $500 Scholarship for the Fall Semester centered on Leadership and Education.
