12 Berkley Students Receive Large Scholarships from Huntington Bank
On Tuesday, May 7, twelve Berkley High School seniors were presented with scholarships from Huntington Bank. These scholarships were a collaboration between Huntington Bank and Berkley Schools. In the second year of this program, Huntington Bank Chairman of the Board of Directors Gary Torgow continued the collaboration and support with Berkley Schools. Mr. Torgow is a Norup alumni and is known for his generous support of local communities.
The scholarship requirements included, among other things, students who exemplified leadership, were involved in their school community and were planning on attending a college, university or trade school upon graduation.
After conducting interviews with student scholarship candidates, Mr. Torgow committed $60,000 to Berkley High School students.
