Distinguished Leadership Scholarship 2008 Application
The deadline has been extended until May 21. 

Congratulations to our 2007 Pepsi Bottling Group Rising Star Scholarship Receipents!

The Rising Stars Program is designed to provide an opportunity for urban youth who have the potential and desire to succeed in college, but who may have been overlooked for traditional scholarships because their grade point averages were not high enough.
Applicants had to maintain a grade point average between 2.5 and 3.5, show evidence of leadership and participation in school and community, submit recommendations and answer several questions about their educational aspirations.  A committee of PBG employees reviewed the applications and chose the winners.

Four out of five of the winners are 21st Century Leaders!  Clarence CJ Moore (not pictured) was a member of our Youth Advisory Board 2006-2007 and has participated in 21CL activities since 2004.  B'Shari Robinson has participated in 21CL since 2006 and came to us through the Boys and Girls Club College Bound Program.  Kourtnee Capers has also participated in 21CL since 2005 and came to us through the Boys and Girls Club College Bound Program.  Ashley Wilson has participated in 21CL since 2006 when she attended Leadership Unplugged: A CNN Experience.
