Melvin-Deininger Scholarship

The Melvin-Deininger Scholarship is awarded to graduates of Lackawanna County high schools who maintain a B average or higher and plan to attend a college, university, or technical school located in Pennsylvania. This scholarship is administered by the Scranton Area Community Foundation, which serves as a charitable resource for the community in northeastern Pennsylvania. The scholarship supports students pursuing higher education at Pennsylvania institutions, helping to make college more accessible for local students who have demonstrated academic achievement with a B average or better.
