![]() |
The scholarship committee and trustees of Berkshire BPW’s non-profit affiliation, Berkshire County Education Council (BCEC), determine scholarship amounts and the number of scholarships awarded although not more than $500 will be awarded to each recipient.
The scholarship awards were presented at the June 1st dinner meeting. This year $2500 in scholarships were awarded to the following women: Lindsay George of Pittsfield; Katherine Heath of Lee; Brenda McMahon of North Adams; Melissa Prime of Cheshire and Sara Strout of Pittsfield.
Each year proceeds from the annual Women of Achievement dinner are earmarked for the scholarship fund. The 2008-2009 WOA recipient was June Roy-Martin of Pittsfield. Nominations for the 2009-2010 Woman of Achievement will be accepted in the near future.
