> Dear Chapter Presidents:
> 
> Applications for the 2022 National Federation of the Blind scholarship program are open, and we need your help. Please share the scholarship program flyer with students and families in your chapter. Spread the word by forwarding our informational flyer to mailing lists, posting links to the application on social media, and sharing information about the achievements of past recipients to inspire future applicants. This program is a crucial opportunity for recruiting outstanding and talented blind people to the Federation for the first time. Learn more about this program.

> Overview of the Program and Applications
> 
> Each year, our organization awards a broad array of scholarships to recognize achievement by blind scholars. The NFB Scholarship Program is our investment in the future of blind people who demonstrate scholastic aptitude, leadership, and service.
> 
> ·    The cash value of our thirty scholarships, $8,000 each, is only one aspect of this prestigious program.
> ·    Each winner also receives funding to travel to and attend the NFB’s national convention, where they have the opportunity to network with other blind students, to exchange information and ideas, and to meet and talk with hundreds of blind people who are successfully working in many occupations and professions.
> ·    All applications and supporting documentation must be submitted no later than March 31, 2022. A list of eligibility requirements, as well as documents containing answers to frequently asked questions, a submissions checklist and other supporting material can also be found on the scholarship webpage.
> ·    It’s an opportunity of a lifetime. Read and share my experience written in this Voice of the Nation's Blind Blog, So Much More than the Money: A Scholarship Story.
> The 2022 online scholarship application is available at nfb.org/scholarships. Please share!
