SCHOLARSHIP AVAILABLE TO AREA HIGH SCHOOL

SENIORS THROUGH GREATER LYNN SENIOR SERVICES

Greater Lynn Senior Services is accepting applications from high school seniors through the Lique Human Services Scholarship. A total of $10,000 will be awarded to up to five students who have an interest in or are considering a career in human services and who have made an impact in their community or the world through service.

The Lique Human Services Scholarship will be awarded to seniors who attend one of the eight high schools located in GLSS’ service area of Lynn, Lynnfield, Nahant, Saugus, and Swampscott. These schools include Lynn English and Lynn Classical High Schools; Lynnfield, Saugus, and Swampscott High Schools; Kipp Academy Lynn Collegiate; Lynn Vocational Technical Institute; and St. Mary’s High School. The scholarship is named in memory of Vince Lique, who served as the Agency’s Executive Director for nearly 25 years and who devoted his career to helping others, particularly vulnerable senior citizens and people of all ages with disabilities, demanding that all people be treated with dignity and respect.

“Vince’s legacy is firmly rooted in his compassion for people. He measured success by the quality of his service to and advocacy for others,” said Kathryn C. Burns, GLSS’ Chief Executive Officer. “I believe in Vince’s theory that one’s individual success is directly related to the benefits received by those around us. The Lique Human Services Scholarship honors the man and his service by encouraging others to do the same.” She noted that this is the scholarship’s 20th year assisting young people in our area.

Applications are available through each high school’s guidance office or can be downloaded at www.glss.net. Applications are due on or before Friday, April 3, 2026.
