The fund provides scholarships for post-secondary education for past and present members of the Mount Airy Junior Fire Company, a program of Mount Airy Volunteer Fire Department. Scholarships are based on exemplary community service and financial need and students may be attending any technical or trade school, certificate program, or two-year or four-year college or university.
