Al Lucas Memorial Scholarship Fund

The Al Lucas Memorial Scholarship Fund, administered by the Community Foundation of Central Georgia, supports student-athletes from the Macon area who are pursuing higher education. The program is designed for graduating scholar-athletes from public high schools in Bibb County, specifically Northeast, Central, Howard, Rutland, Southwest, or Westside. To qualify, applicants must be accepted into an accredited two- or four-year college or university.

Selection is based on athletic achievements, academic performance, personal character, and extracurricular participation, with preference given to students who demonstrate financial need. Applicants must submit a short essay about their athletic experiences and provide two letters of recommendation, including one from a school staff member or coach. While the scholarship application is managed directly through the foundation's online portal, applicants should also complete the FAFSA to document their financial need for the selection committee. The annual application deadline is February 28th.
