<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin:0in 0in 8pt;line-height:107%;font-size:11pt;font-family:Aptos,sans-serif">The scholarship committee is excited to announce the 2024
National Federation of the Blind of New Jersey scholarship class! This class is
one of our most diverse classes yet, including undergraduate and graduate
students, students from 2 and 4 year institutions, and majors running the gamut
from teaching to mountain studies as well as two national scholarship winners. None
of this would have been possible without the generous benefactors, including
the chapters that fundraised to create a scholarship. Please join me in giving thanks
to these benefactors and congratulating our winners on their accomplishment!</p>
