Committee

The Scholarship Program is conducted by committee. The purpose of the scholarship program is to enable young people to reach the highest level of education and training of which they are capable and to which they aspire. Assistance is based on financial need, the only scholastic requirement being that they make satisfactory progress toward the degree or other goal toward which they are working.

Intention

It is the intention of the program to provide financial assistance to the extent that the student would otherwise have to settle for a less complete education because of his financial inability to attain his maximum potential. Assistance is provided as needed to students accomplishing basic degrees or certificates or any higher degree which would make them more capable of reaching their maximum potential as contributing members of our society. Assistance is given for purposes such as tuition, room and board, text material or any other practical need directly related to their education. There is a thorough search and review of other assistance available such as grants, loans, etcetera to assure that every resource has been utilized and that such grant hereunder actually fulfills an essential financial need.
