Colquitt Electric Membership Corporation recently awarded $139,500 in scholarships to deserving students. Forty-seven students were honored with scholarships to colleges and universities with campus locations in Colquitt EMC’s service area.

Since 2006, Colquitt EMC has granted $2,014,500 to 725 students in academic scholarships.

The scholarships are made possible through Georgia legislation that allows unclaimed capital credits to be used for education in the communities served by EMCs.
