The Juvenile Products Manufacturers Association is awarding $10,000 in academic scholarships to five recipients for the 2007 school year.

JPMA recently distributed five, $2,000 scholarships to children of JPMA member company employees, in their pursuit of excellence in higher education. The awards are based on scholastic achievement and future potential, leadership and participation in school and community activities, work experience, career aspirations and goals.

The recipients of the 2007 Scholarship Program are: Mary Kathryn Carroll, NuAngel, Inc.; Kendra Huff, Prenatal Cradle, Inc.; Catherine Mendola, Fisher-Price; Summer Reile, Fisher-Price and Kaitlin Smith, Fisher-Price.

The Scholarship Program was instituted in 1995 with the hope of making more students aware of the juvenile products industry. Interest in the program continues to grow.

“The JPMA Scholarship Program encourages leadership and raises awareness within this growing industry,” said Mike Dwyer, JPMA Executive Director. “We are thrilled to be able to offer this program year after year in the hopes of relieving a small portion of the burden of college tuition while rewarding academic excellence.”
