Meredith Marshall, a 2017 Ada High School graduate, is one of two students who will receive a $1,000 scholarship through Liberty National Bank's scholarship fund, according to Ronald Zimmerly, president and CEO of the bank.
She will be a freshman at Otterbein University this fall, majoring in Chemistry. She is the daughter of Bryan and Colleen Marshall of Ada.
The second student is Alaura Jacobs, a 2017 Riverside High School graduate. Alaura will be a freshman at Rhodes State College this fall, majoring in Nursing. She is the daughter of Angela and Randy Hersh of Lima.
Each graduate received a $1,000 scholarship through Liberty National Bank’s scholarship fund. The employees, under the direction and guidance of Zimmerly, created the fund. Employees make voluntary donations to the fund.
In addition, the Board of Directors at Liberty National Bank made a commitment to match any money given through the scholarship fund up to a maximum of $500. The scholarship is a one-time donation to a qualifying senior of an employee.
