THIBODAUX, La. \u2013 The Nicholls Foundation received $17,500 from Koch Methanol St. James to create an endowed scholarship and invest in opportunities for small business owners to grow their business.<\/span><\/p>\n

The recipient must maintain a 2.5 GPA and ideally\u00a0 be eligible for a Pell Grant. This scholarship will be awarded for eight consecutive semesters, provided all criteria are met.<\/span><\/p>\n
