Tennessee Police Benevolent Association Awards Scholarships

Tennessee PBA Division President Johnny Bohanan recently presented scholarship checks to the children/stepchildren of PBA members. Along with the Police Benevolent Foundation (PBF), the Tennessee PBA proudly awards scholarships to children/stepchildren of PBA members each year. This year, four students were selected to receive the PBF scholarship. They are: Mason Crosser, Morgan McClure, Ashlynn Malone and Christopher Rickman. 
 
This fall the four scholarships will be attending college. Mason Crosser will attend the University of Tennessee at Martin. Morgan McClure will attend the University of the Cumberlands. Ashlynn Malone will be at the University of Tennessee at Knoxville. Christopher Rickman will attend Middle Tennessee State. Congratulations to these scholarship recipients! We wish them the best as they continue their education!

TN Division Scholarship Recipient Aubrey Garton

April 8, 2026

Aubrey Garton finished high school with a perfect GPA, was valedictorian of her class, served as president or vice president of at least four clubs, and already has multiple semesters of college credit under her belt. These achievements alone are quite impressive, but you would likely expect such accolades for a PBF scholarship winner. There is, however, so much more to Aubrey than excellent grades and extracurricular clubs.
