The Tryall Fund has once again made a lasting impact, awarding 350 scholarships to students from high schools, community colleges, and universities in the Hopewell community and surrounding areas.

The awards ceremony which was held on August 6, 2025, celebrated the Fund's long-standing tradition of supporting education. Since its inception over 60 years ago, the Tryall Fund has provided over US $2.3 million in scholarships to just under 2,500 Jamaican students at the secondary and tertiary levels.
