Lions Club accepting scholarship applications
The Sanibel Captiva Lions Club is accepting applications for its annual Frances Bailey Scholarships, which are named after longtime member Francis Bailey, who was one of the club’s founders.
The scholarships are for post-secondary education and only for undergraduate or technical education, not for graduate. They are open to students in Lee County, but preference will be shown to those who live or work on the islands or whose parents do.
The scholarships are in the amount of $3,000 per year and are renewable for up to four years as long as the recipient remains a full-time student in good standing. They are awarded based on academic performance and financial need.
The deadline for applications is May 1.
