During the July 2019 annual Donor and Scholarship Recipient Luncheon, Lynch sat with Dixie Batten, the family representative. Lynch said, “I felt the scholarship I received and the quality of instruction was so impactful I wanted to pay-it-forward.”

In January 2019, The Christa A. Lynch Scholarship was awarded to Blair Gore of Whiteville, NC.

One $1,100 scholarship will be given Spring semester to qualifying students. To learn more about scholarship opportunities, contact the SCC Foundation at (910) 788-6260.
