The Luella and George Shaver Family Scholarship is given to an outstanding Girl Scout who best demonstrates the same qualities that Luella Shaver, a longtime, dedicated volunteer, showed in her life as a Girl Scout. The scholarship began in 1982 and is awarded each year to an exceptional graduating Gold Award Girl Scout. It is awarded for educational pursuits, such as college, vocational training, and/or apprenticeship programs at an accredited school. A special committee and panel of judges, including Luella’s daughters, Mary and Zizi Shaver, determine the scholarship recipient.
Congratulations to our Shaver Family Scholarship recipients!
About Luella Shaver
Luella Shaver started with one Girl Scout troop but soon was leading three troops! Her deep dedication to Girl Scouting was apparent in the remembrance shared by her daughter, Mary, that quitting piano lessons could be tolerated, but quitting Girl Scouts—never! Luella also served in several leadership roles and was well-known and loved as she exemplified true Girl Scout values and vision.
