The Hunter Wilson Scholarship honors the spirit, dedication, and community pride exemplified by Hunter Wilson, celebrating the young people who follow in her footsteps with passion, curiosity, and a commitment to growth. This scholarship supports students who have participated in the Lewis County Business Academy and who are planning to continue their education at Centralia College.
Eligible applicants include both juniors and seniors who have completed the program. While juniors are welcome and encouraged to apply early, scholarship funds will only be awarded upon high school graduation. Unlike traditional awards, the Hunter Wilson Scholarship values personal growth, lived experience, and the spark of possibility. Many Business Academy students discover dreams they never realized they had—this scholarship exists to uplift that discovery. Whether your future lies in a trade, apprenticeship, certificate program, or academic degree, we want to support your journey forward.
Each year, two scholarships will be awarded:
• One student from Centralia High School
• One student from WF West High School
Students are invited to apply by completing the brief form and essay prompts. Kiddin’ Around proudly contributes $1,000 to each scholarship, matched by the Centralia College Foundation for a total of $2,000 per student.
