In 2019, Southern Pine Electric Cooperative began awarding 20 graduating seniors a $1,000 scholarship to use at the institution of their choice. The scholarships are provided through the Electric Cooperative Foundation Scholarship program that was created by the electric cooperatives of Alabama in 1997. Dependents of members of participating cooperatives, such as Southern Pine Electric Co-op, are eligible for the scholarships.
Southern Pine Electric Co-op usually receives the scholarship applications around November-December, of the student's senior year. You can obtain a copy of the application from your school counselor or any of the four offices of Southern Pine Electric Co-op.
