JAMIE & MICHELLE
SNYDER SCHOLARSHIP FUND.
This fund was established by Jamie & Michelle Snyder to benefit a student from Carbondale or Elverado High School that will be continuing their education in a vocational/trade field.
Jamie & Michelle Snyder Scholarship Fund
Jamie & Michelle Snyder created this scholarship to support students who wanted to further their education while staying in southern Illinois. This scholarship focuses on opportunity, determination, work ethic, and potential — not GPA or academic rankings.
Success looks different for everyone, and Jamie & Michelle wanted to create a scholarship that recognizes students for who they are and where they hope to go. The scholarship was designed to support a graduating senior from either Carbondale Community High School (CCHS) or Elverado High School pursuing a career in a skilled trade such as electrical work, plumbing, welding, construction, or other essential hands-on professions. These careers play a vital role in keeping our communities strong, and it was important to us to encourage and invest in students pursuing these paths.
