Joseph F. Labuta Memorial Scholarships
Background:
Since the late 1990s, St. Joseph Council has awarded scholarships to many deserving high school seniors. Council members also coordinated the St. Joseph Parish Scholarship program and in 2014 expanded our awards to youths at St. John Neumann Parish.
St. Joseph Parish ended its parish-based scholarship program before 2020 and St. John Neumann Parish has not had a parish-based program, leaving only our council as a source for scholarships in both parishes.
In 2020, the Coronavirus pandemic caused the St. Joseph Council to cancel its annual Charity Golf Day that provided the funds for many of our council's charitable activities, including scholarships.
In 2023, the council was able to resume it's fund-raising and scholarship
activities.
