MARYSVILLE — The Marysville Rotary Club handed out $121,900 in scholarships to 47 teenagers Wednesday night.
Rotary Clubs in Snohomish County hand out roughly a half-million dollars in scholarships to graduating seniors and college students each year. Rotary members, business sponsors and individual donors pay for the awards.
In Marysville, students are ranked based on financial need, as well as academics, community involvement and an essay about Rotary and its values, including its motto to put “Service Above Self.”
“It’s so inspiring to think these are the kids of the future,” said Gayl Spilman of the Marysville Rotary Education Foundation.
