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.
Congratulations!
