2024 Scholarship Winners
Knights of Columbus $1,000 Scholarships Awarded
Congratulations to Gabriel Gilles and Emma Botello, recipients of our Council 4902 Knights of Columbus 2024 Scholarships! Gabriel, son of Jesse and Hillary Gilles, plans on attending either UW-EC, UW-Madison, or UM-Duluth, majoring in Material Science and Engineering, ultimately seeking a career as a Chemical Engineer. Emma, daughter of Art and Jessie Botello, plans on attending either UW-EC, UW-RF, or UM-Morris, focusing on a career as a Biologist or Doctor. Gabriel and Emma were each recognized with a $1,000 award at the May 8 high school awards ceremony in River Falls. Our KC 4902 Council would also like to recognize all of the scholarship applicants who applied, but were not awarded this scholarship. They were also excellent candidates, making for a very tough final decision. Their Moms and Dads should be very proud of these scholarship applicants and their accomplishments.
