Nancy Julian Distinguished Young Woman Award
The Nancy Julian Distinguished Young Woman Award was established by the Junior League of Anniston-Calhoun, Inc., in 1996. It honors the memory of Nancy Julian, a very active member of our League and community.
The award is presented each year to an outstanding high school senior who has maintained an excellent academic record and has displayed a willingness to serve her school and community through volunteerism and extra-curricular activities. At the present time, our League is awarding the winner with a $3,000.00 scholarship to the college she will be attending.
We partner with the Community Foundation of Northeast Alabama for application submission.
The 2024 Nancy Julian Distinguished Young Woman Award recipient is Miss Branazia Chambless from Saks High School.
