Hamilton Relay, Telecommunications Relay and Captioned Telephone Service provider for the state of Iowa, has awarded a $500 college scholarship to Luke Holdgrafer, a student at Northeast Community High School from Bryant, Iowa.
The Hamilton Relay Scholarship opportunity is available to high school seniors who are deaf, hard of hearing, DeafBlind 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 it serves.
“Hamilton takes pride in recognizing outstanding leadership and promoting education,” said Lori Sporrer, Relay Iowa Outreach Project Manager. “We are excited to have the opportunity to contribute to furthering Luke's education and wish him success in reaching his personal and professional goals.”
Luke was awarded the $500 Hamilton Relay Scholarship after completing the application process, including writing an essay under the topic of communication technology. Luke plans to attend Iowa State University this fall to study Ag Studies.
