Rickett

The Gloria Rickett Memorial Scholarship, funded by Rickett, is designed to honor the memory of Gloria Rickett by supporting high school seniors from Maryland who are preparing to begin their college education. The scholarship awards a total of $15,000, distributed among six winners, each receiving $2,500. It aims to assist students pursuing higher education in fields related to environmental sciences, nursing, or the arts, reflecting Gloria's passions and values during her life. The scholarship not only provides financial support but also encourages students to articulate their career aspirations and motivations through an essay application process.
