The Fund provides $10,000 per year in student scholarships, which are awarded to students at the University’s fall board meeting each year.
Founded in 1902 as the Golden Rule store by James Cash Penney, today JCPenney is one of America’s leading retailers, operating over 1,100 department stores throughout the United States and Puerto Rico, as well as one of the largest apparel and home furnishing sites on the Internet, jcp.com, and the nation’s largest general merchandise catalog business. JCPenney’s commitment to serving its customers with style and quality at compelling prices has led the Company through many transformations over the years.
