The proceeds from this pre-screening will provide additional and much-needed financial support for the Charles & Margaret Jones Scholarship Fund at College Now Greater Cleveland. The scholarship fund was established by Peter Lawson Jones in honor of his late parents’ living legacy. Margaret Jones was a Cleveland public school teacher, and Charles Jones was a college administrator. Both Margaret and Charles had an unshakable belief in the power of education. To date, over $40,000 has been awarded to 19 students through the fund, and the graduation rate for these scholarship recipients is 74%, surpassing the 29% graduation rate of the typical low-income college student.
