Six students from St. Lawrence and Franklin counties were recognized for their academic achievements and future aspirations at a celebratory dinner in Massena, hosted by Air Products and the Northern New York Community Foundation.
The scholarship fund, established through a $25,000 grant from the Air Products Foundation and administered by the Northern New York Community Foundation, provides support to students pursuing all avenues of education, with a particular focus on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math), skilled trades, and environmental conservation.
