Jewish War Veterans MO-KAN Post 605 announced that it has awarded academic scholarships to seven local students.
"Students were selected from a large pool of applications based on demonstrated academic ability, extra-curricular involvement, and overall application quality. We had many impressive applicants this year," said Josh Goldfarb, Post 605's Vice Commander and this year's scholarship committee chairman.
Scholarships were awarded from post funds and honored the names of long-time post members Aaron Braeman, Marvin Denton, Meyer “Mike” Katzman and Marvin Korn. Funding was also supplemented by funds made available by deceased post member Sam Pasmanik under the Gertrude Pasmanik Scholarship Fund.
MO-KAN Post 605 meets at 7 p.m. on the second Thursday of each month at the Jewish Community Campus. JWV membership information is available by contacting the post via email at .
