The Sanilac County Community Foundation is pleased to announce Makayla Blashill as one of the 2024 recipients of the Croswell Lions Club Scholarship.

Makayla Blashill, daughter of Mike and Katie Blashill, graduated from Croswell-Lexington High School. She grew up on her family’s farm where her passion for agriculture began. Makayla decided to further her knowledge about agriculture by becoming part of the Sanilac FFA Chapter where she was later elected President and competed in many contests throughout her time there. Even though she wishes she never had to take off her FFA jacket, it is time for her next adventure in life. Makayla is continuing her education at Missouri Valley College in Marshall, Missouri. There she is studying Agribusiness with a minor in Agronomy while competing on their shotgun sports team.

This scholarship is possible because of the Croswell Lions Club. The Croswell Lions are a part of an international network of 1.4 million men and women dedicated to making a difference locally and globally. Lions Clubs meet the needs of our communities and the world, ranging from assisting the visually impaired and working with local youth to medical missions and disaster relief. Since 1917, Lions have met the needs in their communities and continued to improve the areas in which they live. The Croswell Lions Fund was established in 2019 to directly support the Croswell Lions Club, their mission, vision, and community projects within Sanilac County.

This scholarship is administered through the Sanilac County Community Foundation (SCCF). For more information on scholarship opportunities through the Sanilac County Community Foundation, contact the Community Foundation office at 810-648-3634.

For Good. For Ever.
