PPRS and Central PA PRSA are pleased to recognize Brinley Croft as the 2024 winner of the $1,000 Kenneth G. Robinson Memorial Scholarship. A rising junior at Messiah University, Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, Croft is pursuing a major in public relations with a minor in youth ministries.
During her short tenure at Messiah, Croft has held leadership positions with the Public Relations Student Society of America, serving as Vice President and Treasurer. She also volunteers with the university’s Admissions Office as a student ambassador, interacting with prospective students and their families. Croft is a member of Messiah University’s Honors Program.
Off-campus, she will complete two internships this summer, one with anti-trafficking nonprofit Greenlight Operation to assist with event planning and fundraising and one with Carlisle Evangelical Free Church’s creative design team to curate social media content and plan events. Croft is also a volunteer with Young Life, offering friendship and support to regional high school students and serving at the organization’s summer camp.
The $1,000 Kenneth G.
