The JALC Foundation Student Achievement Award is a distinguished honor established to recognize and celebrate students at John A. Logan College who have shown extraordinary perseverance and strength of character. This award is reserved for individuals who have faced and overcome significant personal, financial, or academic hardships, yet have remained committed to their education and demonstrated steady progress toward achieving their academic and career goals.
Recipients of this award embody the true spirit of determination and resilience. Despite encountering life’s most difficult challenges, whether that be financial instability, family obligations, health issues, or other adversities, they continue to uphold a strong academic standing and serve as an inspiration to their peers and the campus community.
In addition to honoring their achievements, the Student Achievement Award provides vital financial assistance to help ease the burden of continuing education. Notably, this is the only cash award given directly to students by the JALC Foundation, making it a uniquely impactful form of support. This assistance empowers students to stay focused on their goals, continue their educational journey with confidence, and ultimately realize their full potential.
The JALC Foundation takes great pride in celebrating these students, whose journeys reflect the core values of perseverance, integrity, and hope.
