Claiborne Electric to award college scholarships

by Minden Press-Herald

Claiborne Electric Cooperative will award twenty $2,000 scholarships during a drawing this spring. This drawing for college scholarships is open to high school seniors who are Claiborne Electric members or whose parents or guardians are members of Claiborne Electric.

Scholarship entries are due by Friday, April 5, 2024. Winners will be drawn at random, contacted individually, and announced on Claiborne Electric’s website and digital platforms.

Entrants simply need to complete an entry form, which is available at www.our.coop, at either of Claiborne Electric’s offices, or at any high school in the Co-op’s service area. Entries may be scanned and emailed to [email protected], mailed to P.O. Box 719, Homer, LA 71040, or dropped off at either office. Only one entry per student is permitted.

To be eligible for a scholarship, a student must meet the following terms and qualifications:

  • Only high school seniors who have been Claiborne Electric members for at least one year, or students whose parent(s) or legal guardian(s) are active members, will be eligible. Students must have been residing in the household with the member for at least one year at the time of the drawing to be eligible.
  • The scholarships are only good for institutions of higher education in the state of Louisiana.
  • Scholarship checks will be made out directly to the school and must be used within two years after being awarded for tuition, books, or room and board.
  • Recipients will be eligible only once for the scholarship drawing.

Entries should be received at Claiborne Electric by Friday, April 5, 2024, to provide sufficient time for verification of eligibility.
