Jayla Benefield

The Ricky Noles Memorial Scholarship is funded by Jayla Benefield and aims to honor the life of Ricky Noles, a dedicated father and Christian who valued education and hard work. The scholarship supports high school seniors in Alabama who are pursuing degrees in automotive mechanics, nursing, forestry, or teaching. It reflects Ricky's commitment to education and his family's values, as he had children who graduated in these fields. The scholarship not only provides financial assistance but also encourages students to share their personal stories and aspirations through the application process.
