The Milton and Ruby McClendon Memorial Scholarship is a fund named after two honorable, caring, and dignified citizens from Hammond, IN.  Married for 54 years, the couple’s tireless efforts to create a better community were hallmark - stressing education, good parenting, and responsibility. They worked for the common person until their untimely deaths in 2009. The McClendon Scholarship will echo through the years with each awardee carrying the mantle of the humanities.
