Staff Scholarship
We have partnered with Advancement to accomplish our task and fund raising efforts are to begin February 2005. It is our hope to be able to begin awarding one scholarship each semester (fall and spring only) in the amount of $500.00 each, beginning with Fall 2006. Any additional amounts raised above our annual scholarship needs ($1,000) will be used to grow an endowment that will be self-sustaining within our goal of 5 years. Once our endowment goal of $25,000 has been attained, we plan to award as many $500.00 scholarships as possible from the available annual interest. Selection criteria have not yet been decided by the committee.
