Pipeline Company Starts Scholarship Fund

Chattahoochee Valley Community College

A company constructing an interstate natural gas pipeline is donating $50,000 to fund 100 scholarships for students at Chattahoochee Valley Community College in Phenix City, Alabama.

The college recently announced Sabal Trail Transmission's grant to the CVCC Foundation will generate 20 $500 scholarships per year for the next five years.

Beginning next semester, students in the adult education, applied technology and public safety programs will be eligible to apply for the scholarships.

The $3 billion Sabal Trail pipeline will run from Alabama, across Georgia, and into Florida. It's expected to be completed by June.

CVCC is among 17 community or technical colleges near the pipeline's route that Sabal Trail selected to benefit from its $850,000 total donation.
