Atlanta Gator Club Scholarship Fund
The vast majority of the proceeds raised by the Atlanta Gator Club during the year go to fund recognition scholarships for Atlanta area students who will be attending the University of Florida as freshman the next academic year. Additionally, we award one or two sophomore scholarship renewals to previous recipients.
Our annual Scholarship Golf Tournament, the Bull Gator Raffle, and several silent auctions, as well as weekly viewing party raffles and football ticket raffles are events held each year to fund these scholarships.
In the Spring, the Club receives the names of Atlanta area high school students who have been accepted by the University of Florida. These students are sent letters inviting them to apply for our scholarship awards Following evaluation on a variety of criteria in the applications, recipients are usually announced at our annual Gator Gathering.
For the 2011-2012 academic year, the Atlanta Gator Club awarded over $30,000 in Scholarships, which denotes the greatest amount of money we have been able to disburse as well as the greatest number of students we've been able to aid.
For more information about the Atlanta Gator Club Recognition Scholarships, please contact the Scholarship Chairman.
This year's recipients are: Sean Wilson, Jessica Senft, McKenna Smith, Sean Lynch, Ansley Briggs, Josh Kalish, Christina King, Marc Pomerantz, Chelsea Pursley, Brittany Sealey, Scott St. Lifer, Becky Thublin, Katy Whitehurst, Chris Stephens, Lauren Mills, Stephen Coy, Zoe Beiner, Ian Gresov, Shontel Coleman, Jasmine Hayes, Janna Gilstrap, Megan Touten, Virginia Horan, and Linda Jung.
Please continue to support the Club as you have so generously in the past so that we can continue and increase our scholarship participation with future Gators!
