Frederick G. Byington and Christine Latta Byington Family Scholarship Fund

This scholarship fund was created in memory of Fredrick G. Byington and Christine Latta Byington. The purpose of the scholarship is to aid students who are residents of Wilkinson County, Georgia and who have limited financial resources to enter, attend, and/or complete college, vocational school, seminary, graduate school, and/or professional school. Applicants are not required to be "A" or "Honor" students, but must exhibit such abilities and aptitudes as necessary for successful completion of the course of study being pursued. Preference is given to students attending Georgia College & State University, Georgia Military College, Middle Georgia State University, the University of Georgia, Georgia Institute of Technology, Georgia Southern University, Central Georgia Technical College or like institutions, or a Baptist or Methodist Theological Seminary. Up to two new recipients are selected annually based on financial need, and prior recipients are eligible to renew the award each subsequent year for up to four years.
