Cody Blue Pilkington Scholarship
The
CBP Scholarship Fund was established through the generous
support of family and friends to assist students whose
desire and appreciation for an education are as intense
as were Cody's. We have established a relationship with
the NC Community Foundation that will oversee the administration
of the fund, receive donations and applications, and
disburse the awards. We are happy to have this organization
involved in perpetuating this memorial for time everlasting – to
honor Cody and his life and what he stood for.
The scholarship
will be awarded each summer to a rising freshman or sophomore
attending NC State University in any field of engineering,
science or math. Eligible high school students include
North Carolina School of Science and Math, Ayden-Grifton
High School and Arendell Parrott Academy. Guidance counselors
at each school can provide further information and application
packages.
Further funding
is acquired through an annual golf tournament held on
the anniversary of Cody’s death. Current totals
allow for two $500 awards to be distributed each fall.
Other funds obtained contribute to the separate Cody
Blue Foundation which promotes fire safety through
training, presentations and fire department support.
