Julian and Jan Hester Memorial Scholarship

The Julian & Jan Hester Memorial Scholarship aims to assist deserving high school seniors in their first year of college and to promote community banking. All Georgia high school seniors are eligible if they plan to enter a Georgia university, college, or technical institute in the fall semester following their high school graduation. Each year, CBA awards four $1,000 scholarships. Students must be sponsored by a local community bank, complete an activity record, write a short essay on community banking, provide teacher recommendations, and an official high school transcript. Awards are based on academic merit.
