In October 1965, a well-known Beaver County lawyer, Effie Solomon, passed away. To honor her memory her family established the Effie M. Solomon Memorial Scholarship to aid other Western PA women who are training to be lawyers. In 1984 the Beaver Valley Branch began awarding this scholarship to deserving women.
The Beaver Valley Branch of the American Association of University Women is again offering the AAUW Effie Solomon Memorial Law Scholarship. The award of $2,500.00 is open to female residents of Beaver County or Western Pennsylvania, who are enrolled in an accredited law school. Those who have completed at least one year of law school in good standing shall be given preference.
