The H.S. and Angeline Lewis Scholarships were made available to the Auxiliary through the generosity of one of our deceased members, Angeline Lewis, a member of Unit 214, Darlington. Mrs. Lewis bequeathed her estate to our organization for the establishment of a fund to be utilized annually for a scholarship program for deserving applicants. Six awards are available, one is for graduate students. Applicants must be a child, grandchild, great-grandchild, stepchild, step grandchild, step great-grandchild, wife or widow of an honorably discharged American veteran.
