Concord Scholarship Program Receives Grant

Jeffery B. Savage, President & CEO of Franklin Savings Bank, announced this week that the bank presented $5,000 to the Network for Educational Opportunity to support their K-12 Education Scholarship Program, which awards grants to New Hampshire students who are struggling in their current learning environment.

A NEO scholarship assists parents by providing the financial assistance needed to enroll their child in an educational setting that will keep them moving forward, according to a press statement.

“This is the type of program we like to support based upon the knowledge that scholarships provide an immediate impact on a child’s education,” Savage said. “Providing the support needed to empower a parent to make the best choice for their child’s education will change their child’s life and future for the better.”

Based in Concord, the Network for Educational Opportunity provides education information and scholarships for New Hampshire students who are struggling in their current school to enable them to attend another institution more suited to their learning needs.
