2019 AVHRA Scholarship Winner
February 16, 2020
Each year, AVHRA presents a Human Resources Scholarship to a graduating senior from Chelan, Douglas or Okanogan County high schools or college students pursuing a career in the Human Resources field. The Scholarship Committee seeks to award students who demonstrate strong moral character, service to the community and plan to attend a 4-year college or Wenatchee Valley College. This year’s recipient is Emma Allen. Emma is a shining example of what a positive outlook on life can do to lead you through the path of success, especially when the odds seem to be stacked against you. I am reminded of the last sentence in my favorite poem by Charles Swindoll, “Life is 10% what happens to you and 90% how you react to it.” Emma will be pursuing studies in HR at Central Washington University. On behalf of the AVHRA Board, we are honored to present our award to this shining star and wish her the best in her collegiate years.
