Lilli Grenvicz Memorial Scholarship (LGMS)
Lilli Grenvicz was a beautiful and kind woman who loved teaching, tutoring and mentoring her students. Through years of experience, she learned that there are many educational paths that can lead to a student’s success in life. Lilli would be so proud of the vocational and technical education focus supported and encouraged by this Memorial Scholarship named after her.

Thanks to the Lilli Grenvicz Memorial Scholarship, TGCF is now able to offer scholarships for vocation/technical schools. This scholarship will be awarded 3 times during the calendar year – to account for the Spring, Summer and Fall semesters.
SCHOLARSHIP RANGE:
The Scholarship range is generally between $1,000-$3,000. Scholarships shall be awarded to students accepted to or enrolled in a Vocational or Technical School and reside in Barrow or Oconee County or are an employee of The Georgia Club.
Scholarships are preferred to be paid directly to the institution to support the student’s education/training. However, we do review applications to cover additional instruments and supplies needed for a Vocational or Technical program.
FREQUENCY OF APPLICATIONS:
Applications will be accepted continuously; however, they will be reviewed in March, June, and November for the Summer, Fall and Spring semesters, respectively.
SELECTION EVALUATION PROCESS:
There are four essential criteria for the LGMS scholarship. The LGMS scholarships are primarily need-based, with additional criteria used for review. The four criteria are:
- Financial Need
- Work and/or Extracurricular Activities
- Recommendation Letter from teacher, counselor, manager, etc.
- Acceptance to or enrollment in Vocational or Technical School
