Better Business Bureau Serving Acadiana is proud to announce the opening of their annual scholarship application process. Applications will be accepted until September 15, 2023 as well. Students who reside in or attend any trade school, community college or university in any of the following parishes are eligible to apply: Acadia, Evangeline, Iberia, Lafayette, St. Martin, St. Landry and Vermilion.

Again this year, we are thrilled to be able to provide scholarships to three (3) students enrolled in Acadiana area higher education programs from our 7-parish service area.

Students are encouraged to send their application here or go to bbb.org/acadiana. Honorees are selected by a panel of judges. Student recipients, their parents and school counselors are invited to attend the BBB Torch Award for Ethics Program celebration being held November 2, 2023, 5:30 p.m. at Le Pavilion at Parc Lafayette, where they will receive their award and recognition.

The Students of Integrity scholarships are made possible by funds from our Annual BBB Spring Event and other generous donations from businesses and consumers in Acadiana.

This event is the highlight of the year as it is our premier fundraiser for BBB to continue the work we do in our community. Celebrate with us and help promote the importance of ethical business practices.

Sponsorship opportunities are also available at https://www.bbb.org/acadiana/bbb-awards/sponsorship-opportunities.
