The Jacksonville State University Foundation awards the Montgomery Scholarship annually. Established in honor of Dr. Theron E. Montgomery, President Emeritus of JSU, for the benefit of deserving students with preference to those who have a sensory impairment. The JSU Foundation, through collaborative relationships with individuals, corporations, foundations, and other organizations, creates opportunities that will provide additional support to the students, programs, services, and educational community of Jacksonville State University. Dollar amounts for this scholarship will vary.
The Foundation will achieve its mission through image enhancement, effective asset management, entrepreneurial efforts, and development activities. The overall mission of the JSU Foundation is to maximize private gift support for Jacksonville State University while laying the groundwork for future fundraising success, in order to aid the University in fulfilling its own mission of excellence in education, research, and service.
