District Awards Local Scholarship
The District is excited to announce that Dalley Pence was awarded the Diablo Water District Local Scholarship for the 2022-2023 school year. This was the District’s first time participating in the Freedom High School Local Scholarship. The scholarship was adopted by the Board of Directors in December 2022 and provides the opportunity to assist local students in their goal of attending college or trade schools by receiving financial support from the community. This scholarship is funded through other income sources, such as cell tower leases that the District has, not by water rates.
District staff was in attendance and awarded $500 at the Annual Scholarship Awards Night on May 18, 2023. Dalley’s dedication to her community through volunteering and clean-up events, as well as her passion for collaborations and innovation in future business endeavors, was the basis for the award. We are confident that all scholarship recipients will have success in their educational journey and the District hopes to support and encourage careers in water through future internship opportunities.
Participation in this scholarship aligns with the District’s mission of public engagement, the vision of being a valued community resource, the value of we care, plus the goal of encouraging careers in all aspects of water operations, finance, management, and more.
