What to submitEligible candidates must demonstrate a financial need for assistance at a post-secondary school at which the candidate intends to pursue a degree or are pursuing a degree. Eligible candidates will also need to submit at least one recommendation attesting to their character and community engagement and complete an essay prompt that will highlight their commitment to community service. Each year a new essay topic will be presented for the candidates to complete as part of the scholarship application, but in all cases, this essay will be focused on community service.
RestrictionsThe scholarship grants will: (1) only be awarded to students who are candidates for degrees at qualifying educational organizations, and (2) only be used for expenses such as tuition, enrollment fees, books, uniforms, computer, education supplies, travel to and from home and campus (excludes study abroad programs), and other expenses directly related to the student's course of study. The program will provide grants for the purpose of improving or enhancing the artistic, scientific, and similar skills of the grantee. The grant award sizes can fluctuate depending on the student's financial needs, the financial position of the foundation, and at the discretion of the foundation's board of directors.
