Looking for tomorrow's "Best Women"

Scholarship program honors future businesswomen

Applications are now being accepted for a scholarship program designed to support the "next generation" of women business leaders, according to Senator John Pippy, R-37th District.

The Pennsylvania's Best 50 Women in Business Scholarship Board recently announced that applications for its annual scholarship program are now available.

"This is an excellent program, which was designed and supported by previous Best 50 Women in Business Award recipients as a way to support future businesswomen," Senator Pippy said.  

Linda A. Carchidi, Vice President JFC Staffing Associates, and founding member of the Best 50 Women in Business Scholarship advisory board said, "It is our hope that this monetary award will not only assist a worthy recipient in achieving her educational goals, but it will also serve as a source of inspiration and pride throughout her career. As business leaders we have each sought to attain true excellence in our chosen fields while remaining vital, service-minded members of our local communities."

Applications, instructions and criteria can be downloaded at www.best50womenpa.com. All applications must be postmarked no later than April 10, 2005. The scholarship will be awarded during the 10th Anniversary Best 50 Women in Business event May 23, 2005, in the capitol region.
