Residents at Cedar Crest Champion Education Through Student Scholarship Program

Nineteen high school seniors preparing for graduation were named Student Scholars at an award ceremony held May 19 at Cedar Crest, an Erickson Senior Living community in Pompton Plains, NJ.

These hardworking student employees, who worked as servers and hosts across Cedar Crest's on-campus dining venues and met the qualifying criteria, were honored for their dedication and commitment. Their achievements are supported through scholarships funded by generous donations from community residents, helping to position these students for continued success. The student employees were each awarded a $10,000 scholarship.

"Thanks to the generosity of our residents, this scholarship program truly has a meaningful and lasting impact on their futures."
