In celebration of a great educator In July of 2005, one of Augusta’s great educators (elementary and secondary), Mattie B. Burney, entered into rest, but her legacy lives on. Mattie B. Burney who is more frequently referred to as “Ms. Mattie,” was a dedicated educator in the Richmond County area. She was a true advocate for creating opportunity for students to continue their education after high school. In her honor the Beulah Grove Community Resource Center has established the Mattie B. Burney Endowment. The mission of the Endowment is to assist low to moderate income high school seniors and college freshmen from around the CSRA who have 2.5 or better grade point average on their journey to a higher education. Miss Burney was an advocate for assisting students with funding who could not afford to attend college but desired to further their education. Some of Miss Burney’s accomplishments include:
Applications for the Scholarship are available beginning January of each year. Every year scholarship recipients are notified and are awarded a certificate at the Mattie B. Burney Banquet. The banquet is held annually on the first Saturday in November. Tax-deductible contributions to the endowment are accepted year round and can be mailed to: Beulah Grove Community Resource Center, Inc.
