The Donna Wiley Scholarship has been established to assist our college youth with the expenses associated with attending an institution of higher education for the purpose of earning a college degree.
The Donna Wiley Scholarship Fund Committee, with Pastor Dooley, believes to be agents of God’s resources and witnesses to God’s goodness. The Donna Wiley Scholarship Fund’s ultimate goal, to bring honor and praise to God, is achieved through its funding of this significant and pacesetting program of Good Hope Missionary Baptist Church.
Each recipient must meet the following qualifications to receive a scholarship:
1. Be an active member of Good Hope Missionary Baptist Church for 6 months
2. Verify enrollment as a full-time student
Scholarship recipients are eligible for 8 semesters (4 years) of disbursement. We are currently accepting donations on an ongoing basis. Scholarship envelopes can be found in the church foyer.
