Mabel Wagnalls Jones
The
Mabel Wagnalls Jones Scholarship
Mabel Wagnalls Jones established as one aspect of her bequest to
The Wagnalls Memorial Foundation a fund to provide scholarships
for persons residing in Lithopolis and Bloom Township. The
scholarships are to be used for attending institutions of
learning, music and art. Scholarships were awarded beginning in
1948, and over 3,200 students have been assisted in attending
colleges across the United States.
The purpose of the scholarship fund is to encourage and assist
students of Bloom Township in obtaining a degree in higher
education. The primary responsibility for meeting the cost of a
college education lies with the student and his or her family.
It is recognized that the benefits the Fund provides are not
intended to meet the total financial obligation of a student
attending a college or university.
