The purpose of the Rita M. Medeiros Scholarship by Rita's Closet is to honor the memory of Rita Marie Medeiros by providing a scholarship(s) for graduating seniors of a Carroll County, Maryland, public high school, including Carroll County Career & Technology Center. Because Rita was a very caring friend and spent so much of her short life, giving others her time, her friendship, and ultimately the gift of life through organ donation, this scholarship will be awarded to a graduating senior pursuing an undergraduate degree at an accredited college or university, and who meets the criteria established by the Fund. Rita's Closet also collects and makes available Prom Dresses to young ladies in need in the community in memory of Rita's caring and generous spirit. FUND SELECTION CRITERIA: A. FUNDS will be awarded to an applicant who meets the following criteria: 1. The student will be a member of Westminster, Winters Mill, Manchester Valley, Francis Scott Key, South Carroll, Liberty or Carroll County Career and Technology Center graduation class in Carroll County, Maryland. 2. The student will have been accepted at an accredited college, university, or technical school. 3. The student will have maintained a GPA of 3.2 for their high school career. 4.
