Olivia Novakowski Grace & Grit Scholarship

The Olivia Novakowski Grace & Grit Scholarship aims to honor students achieving academic excellence and exhibiting unwavering faith during their high school years by awarding a scholarship to a high school senior.  

Olivia was a faithful servant of our Lord and Savior; a light who lived out the great commission to share the gospel.  But she was also an artist, a daughter, a friend, a sister, and a teacher.  She was brave, empathetic, hardworking, and intelligent. 

Olivia strived to do her very best and always had the honor roll, usually the principal’s list, and obtained several awards each year.  She excelled in Math and ELA.  Her teachers all raved about how she was such an amazing student and helpful to others.  At home, she helped her siblings with their homework if they needed it.  She didn’t know how to stop helping, it just came natural for her.  She was a member of the band and played several different instruments, and she gave her all to each one of them.  She participated in colorguard and was always practicing her routines.  There wasn’t a task that she didn’t pour her entire heart into. 

Help us to honor Olivia’s memory by awarding scholarships to high school students exemplifying the same grace and grit shown by Olivia.
