The Ben Smith “You Can Make a Difference” Scholarship Fund will provide one scholarship grant to a graduating high school senior from any Hilliard public school or a parishioner of St. Margaret of Cortona or St. Brendan pursuing a post-secondary degree which will, in some way, be used to help special needs individuals
