[Mn-abs] NFB of Minnesota 2010 Scholarships for Legally Blind Students

[Steve Jacobson]

Attached is a document that contains information and an application for the state scholarship program of the National 
Federation of the Blind of Minnesota.  Please distribute as widely as possible to legally blind Minnesotans pursuing a post-
secondary education.  If you have received this information through a mailing as well, use the paper or electronic 
versions as is most convenient.

If you have any questions about our scholarship program, please contact the scholarship committee chairperson as 
follows:

Sheila Koenig, State Scholarship Chairperson
e-mail:  shekoenig at comcast.net

or refer to the attached document for additional contact information.  Applications for the Minnesota scholarship program 
must be received no later than June 30.  

In addition to the two NFB of Minnesota scholarships, our national organization is awarding thirty separate national 
scholarships with values ranging up to $12,000.  One application can be used to apply for all of the national 
scholarships, but the application for the national scholarships is not part of the attached application.  Information on the 
national scholarships and the application can be obtained at

http://www.nfb.org/scholarships

Part of the application process for the national scholarships is to be interviewed by the president of our state 
organization, Jennifer Dunnam.  She can be contacted by e-mail at

jennifer.dunnam at earthlink.net

or reply to this note and I will assist.  Unlike our state application, national scholarship applications must be received by 
March 31 which is fast approaching.

Thank you very much for assisting us to reach perspective blind applicants.

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson
NFB of Minnesota Scholarship Committee
