On Thursday, February 2, Peoples Bank Foundation presented a $2,500 gift to Alice Lloyd College to support the Appalachian Leaders Scholarship Program. Peoples Bank, formerly First Commonwealth Bank, has been a friend to the college for many years.
Alice Lloyd College has been providing a tuition-guarantee to students in the central Appalachian region for over 100 years. Doing so means that qualified students pay nothing out-of-pocket for the cost of their education. Without wonderful friends like Peoples Bank this endeavor would not be possible.
Gary Coovert and Nicole Shepherd of Peoples Bank were pleased to present the gift to ALC. Dr. Jim Stepp, Alice Lloyd College President said, “Peoples Bank is a good friend to Alice Lloyd College and our Appalachian region. We are grateful for their support.”
