    Dade County Students Receive Crystal Green Memorial Scholarship

    Article submitted by Lacey Wilson, Blood Assurance

    Although it has been almost ten years since Dade County High School graduate Crystal Green lost her battle with aplastic anemia, her legacy lives on through the Crystal Green Memorial Scholarship, funded by the Blood Assurance Foundation.

    The scholarship has eased the financial burden of higher education for 86 area high school seniors since the program's inception. In May, the Blood Assurance Foundation awarded 12 graduates with a $1,500 scholarship, including Rebecca Blevins and Danielle Houts, who both recently graduated from Dade County High School. Blevins will attend the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga in the fall, while Houts will attend Lee University.

    The Foundation received more than 60 applications which were then judged by a panel who selected the scholarship recipients based upon their blood drive marketing plans. All recipients were required to have at least a B average and have scored at least a 20 on the ACT score or a 1,100 on the SAT.

    To raise funds for the scholarship program, the Blood Assurance Foundation coordinates a celebrity golf tournament and auction each year in the fall. For more information about the Blood Assurance Foundation golf tournament or to make a contribution to the Foundation, please contact the Marketing and Public Relations Department at (800) 962-0628 or (423) 756-0966.
