SCHOLARSHIP
Each year, the Louisville Alumnae Chapter supports the academic endeavors of local youth by providing scholarships to aid with their pursuit of higher education. These scholarships are made possible by the success of several annual chapter events, such as the Jazz Brunch and Delta Day at the Races, and the generosity of donors like you.
