ECCE Students Chavers & Dixon Tapped for Horadan Scholarship

The Horadan Scholarship was recently awarded to two Oconee Fall Line Technical College (OFTC) Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE) students Inac’Mone Chavers (Dublin) and Debra Dixon (Chester) by the OFTC Foundation, Inc.

The Horadan scholarship is awarded annually and was established by Dr. Lloyd Horadan, former OFTC president, in memory of his mother, Joyce Horadan, a life-long educator. To be eligible for the scholarship, a student must be enrolled in the ECCE associate degree program, have successfully completed 12 credit hours, and have a minimum grade point average of 2.5.

“Many students enrolled in the Early Childhood Care and Education Program at OFTC have benefited from the generosity of the Horadan Family over the years,” shared Kathy Aaron, Executive Director of OFTC Foundation. “These two most recent recipients are very deserving and are excellent role models.”
