[NFB-NM] Scholarship opportunity for blind and low-vision students

[Tara Chavez]

Attention High School Seniors and college students!!

 

The National Federation of the Blind awards scholarships to recognize
achievement by blind and low-vision scholars. Thanks to our generous
partners, there are thirty $8,000 merit-based scholarships currently
available. But the cash prize is only one aspect of this prestigious
program. We also provide funding to travel to and attend the National
Federation of the Blind's national convention, with opportunities to network
with blind students, to exchange information and ideas, and to meet and talk
with hundreds of blind professionals from diverse fields.

Start your application early and submit all the required items before the
deadline of March 31, 2025. Review the eligibility requirements, rules, and
the submission checklist. This is an opportunity of a lifetime!
