WHEREAS, for the past 17 years, the Justice High School Scholarship Fund has provided scholarships to academically high-achieving students who need financial assistance in order to realize their dreams of higher education; and
WHEREAS, the Justice High School Scholarship Fund, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization operated and managed by an all-volunteer board with the assistance of additional community volunteers, was originally incorporated in 2004 as the J.E.B. Stuart Educational Foundation to support students at J.E.B. Stuart High School in Falls Church; and
WHEREAS, the organization changed its name to the Justice High School Scholarship Fund in 2018 to mirror the school’s name change from J.E.B. Stuart High School to Justice High School and to better reflect the organization’s mission as a scholarship granting organization; and
WHEREAS, since its founding, the Justice High School Scholarship Fund has awarded more than $1.7 million to help more than 775 graduates of the former J.E.B. Stuart High School and Justice High School continue their educational journeys; and
WHEREAS, in the 2021-2022 academic year alone, the Justice High School Scholarship Fund has raised more than $200,000, enabling more than 70 Justice High School students to attend institutions of higher education; and
WHEREAS, in selecting recipients for its financial assistance, the Justice High School Scholarship Fund requires students to demonstrate not only high academic achievement and serious financial need, but leadership and a desire to give back to the Justice High School community; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED by the House of Delegates, That the Justice High School Scholarship Fund hereby be commended for helping hundreds of young people on their pathways to success; and, be it
RESOLVED FURTHER, That the Clerk of the House of Delegates prepare a copy of this resolution for presentation to the Justice High School Scholarship Fund as an expression of the House of Delegates’ admiration for the organization’s contributions to the Commonwealth.
