The Riley Nuce Shining Light Scholarship was created as a way to honor Riley's legacy and continue shining his light into the lives of others. What began as a means to financial support students reflecting Riley's vibrant spirit, compassionate heart, and dedication to agriculture has grown into something much greater—thanks to the unwavering support of our community and the passion behind our mission. Today, the Riley's Light Foundation proudly awards two annual scholarships of $1,000 per year for up to four years of undergraduate study.

​

These scholarships are awarded exclusively to:

• A graduating senior from Pike County High School’s Agriculture Education program in Zebulon, GA

• A graduating senior from CrossPointe Christian Academy in Hollonville, GA

 

By investing in the future of these exceptional agriculture and faith driven students, the foundation ensures that Riley’s light continues to shine—brightening paths, building dreams, and supporting the next generation of agricultural leaders.

​

Riley’s legacy lives on through every student who receives this scholarship, every goal they pursue, and every life they touch. At Riley’s Light Foundation, we believe that one life can spark countless others—and Riley’s spark continues to glow.

To apply for the Riley's Shining Light Scholarship students attending Pike County High School in Zebulon, GA and CrossPointe Christian Academy in Hollonville, GA should reach out to their school counselors to obtain an application.
