As part of their 50th reunion activities in Oct. 2004, the WWHS Class of 1954 held a silent auction to raise money for a named scholarship fund. A number of individuals also made personal contributions. They were further assisted by a challenge grant from the Beckley Citizens Scholarship Committee. When the 100 classmates and 70 guests said their farewells, they had reached the $10,000 goal to establish a new scholarship fund. This was the 8th class of Woodrow graduates who pooled their resources to create a lasting memorial to their class and an on-going source of scholarship assistance.
