Group Is Accepting Scholarship Requests

The Ventura County chapter of Jack and Jill of America, a nationwide nonprofit organization dedicated to the interests of children, is accepting applications from high school and college students for its 1997 scholarship program.

The scholarships are open to Ventura County students with a grade point average of 2.5 or better and two letters of reference. The amounts of the scholarships have not yet been determined.

The scholarships will be given during an awards ceremony in March that will also acknowledge outstanding accomplishments from African Americans who live and work in Ventura County.
