Following the death of John S. Pidcock in 1999, the outpouring of love and respect for him resulted in financial contributions from members of First Presbyterian Church of Allentown as well as from many other friends and colleagues in the Lehigh Valley and elsewhere.  After considering several possible uses for these gifts, the Pidcock family recommended that the establishment of a scholarship fund in John’s memory would best honor him as he was known and loved.  His life was a reflection of his discipline and commitment to his faith in God through dedication to the church, education, mission, and community service.

The annual deadline for completed application forms and letters of reference is Jan 31.  Applications will be reviewed by Feb 28, followed by interviews with the most qualified applicants.  The scholarship(s) will be awarded in April.
