[NFB-Utah] Fwd: NFBU Scholarship Program

[Nfb Utah]



Dear friends and colleagues,



The National Federation of the Blind of Utah is very excited about their
annual scholarship program. This program affords blind individuals the
opportunity to apply for scholarships and to potentially win thousands of
dollars that they can put towards their college educations. We all know
that assistive technology can be quite costly and these scholarships have
allowed blind individuals access to technology that they might not have
otherwise been able to afford.

The application deadline is March 1, 2020. This allows the scholarship
committee time to carefully consider every application before the state
convention of the National Federation of the Blind of Utah where the
finalists will be announced and the scholarships will be awarded on the
final night at the banquet.

Along with the application the applicants will need to submit some
supporting documentation. Here is the link to the National Federation of
the Blind of Utah’s website where everything is explained.

present at the entire convention in order to be eligible to win any
scholarship funds!
