Subj: Scholarship applications for student activists

 

FYI - May want to pass along to any student activists that you know!

Please distribute widely
ATTENTION STUDENT ACTIVISTS!
Are you organizing for progressive social change?  Leading student movements on your campus or in your community?  If so, read on.
The Davis-Putter Scholarship Fund has applications available for student activists who are building progressive movements for social change and will be enrolled in school during the 2011-12 academic year.
Our website provides answers to questions about the Fund, the application process, and the students we support.  If you know of students working for peace and justice, or if you have a list of
activist contacts, please send this announcement along and refer potential applicants to the Fund website: www.davisputter.org

Since 1961 the Davis-Putter Scholarship Fund has provided need-based grants to students who are involved in building movements for social and economic justice and are able to do academic work at the college
level.  Grantees are both graduates and undergraduates enrolled in accredited schools for the period covered by their grant.  Although citizenship is not a consideration, applicants must be participating
in activities in the US and plan to enroll in an accredited program in the US in order to qualify. The maximum grant is $10,000 and may be considerably smaller depending
on the applicant's circumstances and the funding available.  All the funds come from individual donors and there are 25-30 grants awarded each year.  Grants are for one year although students may re-apply for
subsequent years. Applications and the supporting documents -- transcripts, a personal statement, two letters of recommendation, a photograph, financial aid reports -- must be postmarked by April 1, 2011.  Those selected to
receive a grant will be notified in July.
