GLSS’ Vincent Lique Human Services Scholarship

FOR SENIORS

Greater Lynn Senior Services (GLSS) is accepting scholarship applications from high school seniors who attend one of the schools located in the Greater Lynn area (KIPP Academy Lynn Charter School, Lynn Classical High School, Lynn English High School, Lynn Vocational Technical High School, Lynnfield High School, St. Mary’s High School, Saugus High School, and Swampscott High School) through the Lique Human Services Scholarship. Two $5,000 scholarships will be awarded to students who have an interest in or are considering a career in human services and who have made an impact in their community or the world through community service. Completed scholarship applications are due to the student’s respective guidance office by Friday, April 5, 2024.

The Lique Human Services Scholarship will be awarded to two seniors who attend one of the eight high schools located in GLSS’ service area of Lynn, Lynnfield, Nahant, Saugus, and Swampscott. The scholarship is named in memory of Vince Lique, the Agency’s long-time Executive Director who devoted his career to helping others, particularly vulnerable senior citizens and people of all ages with disabilities, demanding that all people be treated with dignity and respect.

“Vince’s legacy is firmly rooted in his compassion for people. He measured success by the quality of his service to and advocacy for others,” said Kathryn C. Burns, MHA, GLSS’ Chief Executive Officer. “I believe in Vince’s theory that one’s individual success is directly related to the benefits received by those around us. The Lique Human Services scholarship honors the man and his service by encouraging others to do the same.”
