Luke’s Legacy Memorial Scholarship- 2/$1000- Luke Austin Whitworth was a CHS graduate of 2013; and tragically lost his life in October 2019. One year later, in October of 2020 Luke’s Legacy was founded. The purpose of Luke’s Legacy is to provide a scholarship to a senior that shares the same qualities that Luke did and simply #LLMLL (Live Life More Like Luke) did. There is no better way to honor his life. The $1000 scholarship may be used for a community college, a trade school or towards vocational training or certification. The recipient(s) will be selected based on the positive traits Luke possessed and their GPA will not be a factor in the selection. Recipient(s) will be selected based on factors such as: work ethic, character, community involvement, stewardship, respectfulness, ………………. #LiveLifeMoreLikeLuke #LLMLL
Often in Luke’s life it seemed as if he could never catch a break! Plenty of things occurred as a result of his own actions or choices, however; his life really was affiliated with misfortune and mishaps (no doubt that made him who he was). Luke often said and believed if it weren’t for ‘bad’ luck he’d have no luck at all. His Mom always told her children:
“Sometimes life isn’t fair and doing the right thing doesn’t mean it will always result in things working out the way you wanted them to – keep being you & never stop doing what is right. Everything is either a blessing or a lesson.” This scholarship will be chosen the best way we know how to and for it to be something Luke would be proud of.
**Two sealed letters of recommendation due in the Next Level Center by Feb 22 at 4:00 PM**
