Hendrichovsky among Mississippi Trucking Association Foundation scholarship recipients

A 2025 graduated senior from Lewisburg High School was among the recipients of a scholarship from the Mississippi Trucking Association Foundation. Andrew Hendrichovsky, who lives in Coldwater but attended Lewisburg High School, was among those selected and honored at an awards ceremony in Jackson last month.

Over 35 years ago, the Mississippi Trucking Association Foundation Scholarship Program was created. The primary objective of the Foundation, a 501(c)3 charitable corporation designed to receive contributions, memorial gifts, and property, is to promote educational projects related to the trucking industry and provide scholarships to deserving students who have ties to the trucking industry and who are enrolled in scholastic endeavors in the state of Mississippi.

The program awards winners $1,000 per semester, for a total of up to $2,000 per academic year. Scholarship funds are divided into two installments and are intended for use toward tuition only. Recipients may renew the award for a second year if they maintain eligibility, making the maximum total award $4,000 over two years

This class joins about 500 students who have received this scholarship. Scholarships are offered through the Mississippi Trucking Association Foundation and the following Endowments: Mike McLarty, John Fayard, Jr., H. Dean Cotten, G. Larry Kerr, R. Gene Holmes, Vernon & Nancy Sawyer, John D. Stomps, and W. Todd Bates.
