AFSCME Scholarship


Applications are being taken for 2003 AFSCME Scholarships. The AFSCME Family Scholarship Program is an ongoing program of scholarships available to children and financially dependent grandchildren of AFSCME members. Under the program, 10 scholarships of $2,000 each are awarded annually to the winners selected from the applicants who meet eligibility requirements. Once awarded, the scholarships will be renewed for $2,000 each year for a maximum of four years, provided the student remains enrolled in a full- time course of study.

Any graduating high school senior who is a daughter or son of an AFSCME member, (or whose legal guardian or financially responsible grandparent is an AFSCME member) and who intends to enroll in a full- time, four year degree program in any accredited college or university, is eligible to apply for a scholarship. The scholarship may be used for any field of study. Winners will be announced by MARCH 31.
