The Blanche L. King Scholarship program is funded by the Women’s Ministries of the International Pentecostal Holiness Church to assist children of IPHC Missionaries in furthering their education at one of the denominational colleges. The scholarship is named in honor of the third General Woman’s Auxiliary (now Women’s Ministries) President and the wife of Bishop J.H. King.
Mrs. King had the distinction of being the first teacher hired for Franklin Springs Institute (now Emmanuel College) in 1919 and gave the baccalaureate address for the 50th anniversary of the college in 1969. She had a deep love for the education of children of missionaries.
