Fact (page-stated): 'Each year, the Millard Morris Founder's Scholarship Fund awards a scholarship to a graduating high school senior who is pursuing higher education at a four-year institution.' Fact: criteria are pursuing a college degree in a four-year program beginning the fall after graduation, a minimum 3.0 high school GPA, and being 'a child, stepchild, grandchild, or legal dependent of a full-time AMERISAFE employee (excludes temporary employees, company executives, and board members).' Fact: the award is '$1,000 per year for Years 1-3 and $2,000 for Year 4 for a 4-year program.' Fact: recipients include Jaidyn James (DeRidder High School, 2026), Madison Rodgers (Woodward-Granger High School, Iowa, 2025) and Katherine Lewis (DeRidder High School, 2024); the fund succeeds the AMERISAFE Family Scholarship, whose recipients came from schools across several states.
