The graduating class of 2022 has shown great resilience, flexibility, and determination. The current challenges of the world also provide ample opportunity for them to make an impact in the future. And at EO Johnson, we’re proud to help them on their way. This year we’ve selected two exemplary graduating seniors, members of our EO Johnson family, to receive scholarships. These students are children of our employees and embody the values that we hold dear, values that will surely help them succeed in this exciting next chapter of their lives.
Since the program’s inception with the class of 2016, EO Johnson has awarded $19,500 to 39 students. These students have been focused on a wide array of study areas and attended a diverse group of 22 different technical colleges and universities.
“Supporting, mentoring, and caring about our employees and their families is just who we are at EO Johnson, and our scholarship program is one way we do that,” said Mary Jo Johnson, owner and CEO. “It’s exciting to recognize and reward a new group of young people every year.”
We look forward to hearing about the future successes of Lee and Julia. From all of us at EO Johnson to all the proud parents of graduating seniors and our scholarship recipients, congratulations on a job well done.
The EO Johnson Business Technologies Scholarship program is open to legal dependents of our full-time employees who are graduating with a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher and plan to continue their education full-time at an accredited technical college or college/university in the fall semester after graduation. Award determinations are made by a committee, and scholarship payments are issued after the successful completion of the first semester of college by the award recipients.
