Hamilton Relay, Telecommunications Relay and Captioned Telephone Service provider for the state of Iowa, has awarded a $500 college scholarship to Malinda Rae Jorgensen, a student of Grandview Park Baptist in Des Moines, IA.
The Hamilton Relay Scholarship opportunity is available to high school seniors who are deaf, hard of hearing, deaf-blind or have difficulty speaking. A recipient is selected within each of the states where Hamilton is the contracted service provider and is one of several ways the company gives back to the communities they serve.
"Hamilton takes pride in promoting education and outstanding leadership across the country," said Outreach Coordinator, Lori Sporrer, "We are excited to have the opportunity to contribute to furthering Malinda's education and wish her success in reaching her personal and professional goals."
Malinda Jorgensen was awarded the $500 Hamilton Scholarship after completing an application and writing an essay under the topic of communication technology. Malinda plans to attend Drake University this Fall to study Journalism.
