ASU Students Get Stripes Scholarships

Angelo State University has presented 33 undergraduate students with 2014-15 academic scholarships funded by a $34,000 grant from Stripes Convenience Stores through the Stripes College Scholarship Fund. The Stripes College Scholarship Fund was formed through an in-store fundraising campaign that raised $545,000 last December at all the store locations throughout the Stripes operating area. More than 500 students will receive Stripes scholarships this year at colleges and universities in Texas, New Mexico and Oklahoma, and Stripes is also underwriting the administrative costs of running the scholarship program.
