The Lowcountry Ladies of SC awarded eight $1,000 scholarships to local high school graduating seniors to assist with their college tuition.

The recipients are from Beaufort, Colleton, Jasper and Hampton counties. Scholarship funds are generated from an annual luncheon, donations and sponsors. The Hubert/Jessie Tyler Charitable Fund and the Alexandria Patterson Fund have been generous supporters of the scholarships which are awarded each year.

The Bargain Box of Hilton Head Island 2015 Grant Award sponsored four Beaufort County graduating seniors’ book award scholarships for 2015.

The luncheon, held at the Holiday Inn-Beaufort, attended by over 200, featured a fashion show with fabulous outfits from our loyal sponsors, Doncaster, Patricia’s, Stein-Mart, and Jos A. Banks from Hilton Head Island. Thank you all for your support. Plans are now being made for the 2016 awards luncheon. For details contact, Veronica Miller at veronicamiller34@gmail.com.
