[MN-at-Large] Final Reminder - Scholarships Available for Minnesota's Legally Blind Students until April 15, 2021

[Steve Jacobson via Minnesota-Talk]

There are still almost two weeks to apply for scholarships with the 
National Federation of the Blind of Minnesota. Our deadline for 
applications is April 15. Legally blind postsecondary students 
attending school full-time in Minnesota are encouraged to apply. Two 
scholarships of $2,000 and $1,500 will be awarded at our state 
convention in Bloomington during the weekend of November 5-7, and 
your expenses will be paid to attend that convention. In addition, 
scholarship winners will have the opportunity to attend our national 
virtual convention on July 6-10. The application for our scholarship 
and all pertinent information and an on-line application can be found at

<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.nfbmn.org%2Fprograms%2Fscholarships&data=04%7C01%7C%7C9f3fc324f7f94268072608d8f6ac5686%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637530567537383014%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=znpUUa1mxZsQ1usPMWisTFX5Mh7zSJvO4CDLA7SUkRg%3D&reserved=0>https://www.nfbmn.org/programs/scholarships

Please note that our state convention was "virtual" last year, so a 
decision will be made about the actual location of our state 
convention closer to the scheduled date.



A Microsoft Word version of the application is also attached to this 
note. If you use the attached Microsoft Word form, send it with the 
required documents to Scholarships at nfbmn.org. If it is necessary to 
submit the application on paper, use the mailing address supplied 
with the application in the attached document.



For questions about the application process, please contact the 
Scholarship Committee at

<mailto:%3cScholarships at nfbmn.org%3e>Scholarships at nfbmn.org

or call our office at 612-872-9363.





*** A Note from our national office: Thirty scholarships will be 
awarded by the National Federation of the Blind, but this year's 
deadline has past. Keep our national scholarships in mind for next year.



Best regards,



NFB of Minnesota Scholarship Committee
