The name change to Troy Dollars for College followed the Troy Dollars for Scholars’ board decision last year to disaffiliate with the national organization known as Scholarship America. Several factors were involved in the local board’s decision, including concerns that money donated locally should remain local, said Jennifer Walters, local board president. Troy Dollars for College now operates under The Troy Foundation as a 501(c)(3).
The organization will continue to hold its annual mail campaign in the spring and award scholarships at graduation. NANCY BOWMAN, CONTRIBUTING WRITER
