About the Leo W. Seal, Jr., Scholarship
The late Leo W. Seal, Jr., a former president and CEO, served Hancock Whitney for 60-plus years. He gave a substantial and, at the time, anonymous donation to establish scholarships through the Gulf Coast Community Foundation (GCCF), the agency that administers the scholarship fund. Hancock Whitney awarded the first scholarships in 2011 in memory of Seal, who was a lifelong champion and benefactor for countless educational opportunities.
