Hello Fellow Blind Virginians,

I would like to invite you to apply for a Virginia Lions Eye Institute
Foundation (VLEIF) Scholastic grant.  VLEIF usually awards approximately 40
scholastic grants of approximately $1500 during each calendar year.  Blind
Virginians who live in the following areas are eligible to apply for these
scholastic grants:  northern Virginia, Fredericksburg, Charlottesville,
Staunton, Harrisonburg, and Winchester.  All scholastic grant applications
must be received by December 5, 2020.

These scholastic grants may be used to pay college tuition, purchase
assistive technology, or for other purposes as long as it would increase a
blind/visually impaired person's ability to live independently.

Preference will be given to people who have not received a VLEIF scholastic
grant in the past.

If you have questions regarding eligibility for the VLEIF application, you
may contact Woody Woodard at woodywoodard at cox.net

Peace,
