Amber Parker Memorial Scholarship to benefit Students of Local High Schools
The Amber Parker Memorial Scholarship Award for local area high school students is given in memory of Amber, who graduated in 2012 from East Lincoln High School and died in November 2018 from a rare and aggressive form of ovarian cancer. Amber was a cheerleader, academic leader, community leader, competitive dancer, and participated in many activities while attending East Lincoln and Western Carolina University, where she graduated with a degree in Hospitality and Tourism. Amber’s inner beauty, kindness, laughter, and spiritual strength will be the focal points for this scholarship.
This award will be given to students who plan to further their education after high school graduation and who participated in extra-curricular activities while attending high school.
To apply, please select the High School you attend and submit the form.
Amber Parker Memorial Scholarship to benefit Students of WCU dance team
Amber Parker, a dancer since childhood in her North Carolina hometown of Denver, was a member of the WCU dance team during her junior and senior years and helped propel the 2015-2106 team to a third-place finish at national competition — WCU’s best showing to date. To honor her big heart and generous spirit, Amber’s former dance team coaches — Jessica Graning, Lindsi Cauley and Amy Manshack — created the Amber Parker Memorial Annual Scholarship, which offers $1,000 in scholarship support to a qualifying dance team member each year.
