The Oxford Women’s Club recently awarded $9,450 in scholarships to seven Oxford students: Curtis Bartz, Danielle Kemp, Acacia Kronenberg, Avery McKinley, Katherine Sanchez, Hannah Schonfeld, and Victoria Spring. Each student received a $1,350 scholarship to pursue their educational dreams.

For 85 years, the Oxford Women’s Club has been serving our community. The membership of approximately 20 women focuses on raising funds to provide scholarships for students living within the Oxford School District or attending an Oxford area school. Scholarships are available to both young women and men, and can be used for college or vocational training.

Club members raise money through various fundraising events, including an October fall fashion show, a wine tasting held the last Sunday in January, and a Hoedown in July. All money raised goes to scholarships or small grants to local worthwhile efforts, such as Oxford/Addison Youth Assistance, Girls’ State Citizen Training Program, and Fish.
