Lincoln, NE (May 14, 2018). The National Federation of the Blind of
Nebraska today announces the 2017 NFBN Scholarship Program and the
immediate release of its application form.



Are you a legally blind college student living in Nebraska? This annual
program offers 5 scholarships ranging in value from $250.00 to $1,000 to
eligible students from high school seniors beginning their freshman year in
the fall semester of 2018 up through grad students working on their PhD.  These
merit scholarships are based on academic excellence, community service, and
leadership. In addition to the money, each winner will receive an all-
expense paid trip to the NFBN state convention in Columbus, NE from October
12th through 14th,  2018,  and the chance to compete for one of five
scholarships awarded by the state affiliate and various chapters and
divisions within the NFB of Nebraska.



Anyone who has ever attended an NFBN convention will be proud to attest to
its ability to be a positive, life changing experience.



To apply, read the rules and the submission checklist, complete the
official 2018 Scholarship Application Form, supply all required documents,
