Inda Allen Scholarship Dinner
Sunday, November 24, 6:00 p.m.
Sautee-Nacoochee Center
The community celebration and fundraiser for the Inda Allen Scholarship Fund will be at 6:00 p.m. on Sunday, November 24 (the Sunday before Thanksgiving) at the Sautee-Nacoochee Center. Everyone is welcome to attend and enjoy a delicious meal, fellowship and entertainment. Please bring a dish to share.
This annual event is jointly sponsored by churches in the Sautee-Nacoochee area: Nacoochee United Methodist, Nacoochee Presbyterian, Resurrection Episcopal and Bean Creek Missionary Baptist. Fr. Scott is a member of the Scholarship Advisory Board.
Inda Allen was a high school junior when she died in 1987 of a blood clot; the White County school system did not desegregate its bus system until 1990. As a resident of the historically African-American neighborhood of Bean Creek, Inda was a scholar, athlete, fashion model and soul-stirring vocalist, but also a symbol of hope.
The Inda Allen Scholarship is an annual minority student scholarship for graduating African-American students at White County High School. The scholarships are awarded to qualified black students for tuition and/or expenses at colleges or technical schools.
On this night of fellowship, contributions will benefit the Scholarship Fund, which has awarded nearly 40 educational scholarships to African-American students since 1988.
Resurrection Episcopal is proud to contribute to the scholarship and pleased to encourage continuing support of the educational aspirations of African-Americans with historical ties to the Bean Creek Community.
Inda Allen - a beautiful memory that still lights the way, today and tomorrow.

Hosted by:
Nacoochee United Methodist Church, Nacoochee Presbyterian Church,
The Episcopal Church of the Resurrection, and Bean Creek Missionary Baptist Church.
