We are proud to celebrate this year’s CPOF Scholarship recipients—remarkable young men and women who represent the strength, resilience, and legacy of the correctional profession. Below are just a few of the inspiring faces who received scholarships in honor of their loved ones’ service.

If you or your student received a 2025 CPOF scholarship and haven’t sent in a photo yet, we’d love to include you! Please email your photo to mail@cpof.org with the student’s name in the subject line. Let’s continue honoring these bright futures together.

Good morning, Ms. Lee,
I want to thank CPOF for the scholarship that was given to me this past week. I am honored to have been selected for this award.
The money will help pay for books and parking fees this year, and I am grateful for the support as I begin my studies at the University of South Carolina.
The picture below is of my Mom, Sara Kloke, and me.  My mom is a pharmacist for the South Carolina Department of Corrections.
Thank you again for this wonderful gift.
Sincerely yours,
Daniel Kloke
