TJ and Annie Ruth Rushton Legacy Scholarship


TJ and Annie Ruth Rushton migrated from Alabama and Arkansas to Youngstown, Ohio where they met and married! Together, they raised nine children with the principles of loving God, family, working hard and sharing with others. TJ and Annie only had a 4th and 7th grade education, and it would appear they had nothing, but the strong foundation they provided for their nine children produced a legacy of success for their children and generations to come. Those strong roots now have many branches, and all of their children attended college or trade school and continued their legacy. An eligible student(s) for this scholarship must be a minority student, majoring in Education with a minimum 3.0 GPA. Preference will be given to a student from Youngstown, OH and a first-generation college student.
