Description

The Craig D. Butler Scholarship Foundation Award will be given to a college-bound, African-American high school senior who is from or will graduate from a high school in Pennsylvania or Camden County, New Jersey.

Applicants residing in or attending school in Camden County, New Jersey are also eligible. Applicants must submit two statements of personal recommendations to support their application.
