Helen and Shirley Highland Scholarship

Scholarship Purpose: The Helen and Shirley Highland Scholarship was created by Jeff and Lisa Charnogorsky to honor the legacy of Jeff's grandmother, Helen, and mother, Shirley. Jeff graduated in 1985 with a Bachelor of Science in political science. He and his wife created a scholarship to help a well- deserving student with the increasing costs of higher education at ISU in the College of Arts and Sciences. Neither Helen nor Shirley attended college as the financial barrier was too great for the family at the time. They were both loving and caring mothers and wives devoted to raising their families. A college degree was something few women attained during Helen and Shirley's time. Times have changed and this scholarship endeavors to assist an ISU student in attaining a degree. Education is empowerment. Although they could not attend Illinois State University, they taught Jeff the importance of higher education and even more importantly the impact of paying it forward. Jeff and Lisa would like this scholarship to go to a deserving student who will continue the practice of paying it forward with exemplary actions through school activities and/or volunteer services.
