Pamela Marrapese “Keep NH Lakes Clear” Endowed Scholarship Fund
The Pamela Marrapese “Keep NH Lakes Clear” Endowed Scholarship Fund provides a scholarship award for an outstanding undergraduate or graduate student at Plymouth State University who is seeking to develop an understanding of environmental science with particular interest in the science of freshwater ecology. As a lifelong resident of New Hampshire, Pamela Marrapese was instrumental in the formation of one of the first lake associations in New Hampshire, The Webster Lake Association. She guided the organization through its infancy, and fought battles on behalf of the lake to help preserve its clean water. Pam’s primary belief was that education is tantamount in achieving and maintaining water quality. The scholarship is available to full-time matriculated returning undergraduate students majoring environmental science and policy, environmental biology, or environmental planning, or graduate students in Environmental Science and Policy. Applicants should have taken, or intend to take, classes related to freshwater ecology.
