Scholarship details
The James T. and Rose M. Perryman Family Foundation was created because Mr. and Mrs. Perryman realize how blessed they have been in their lives. Those around them, though, know that those blessings came, in part, through hard work and a commitment to family and their community.
One way they have chosen to demonstrate their desire to help others committed to working hard is through the Perryman Family Foundation scholarship program. The scholarships will be awarded to students who share the Perrymans’ commitment to working harder than their classmates so that they can make a difference in the lives of their families, their neighbors and – as they succeed in their careers – in the world.
