Ducky Birts Foundation Scholarship - Deadline extended to August 19, 2011

August 04, 2011

SCHOLARSHIP INFORMATION
The Ducky Birts Foundation was established to provide educational programs and scholarships for youth in Philadelphia, PA and Camden, NJ. Scholarships are provided to students attending Cheyney University and Lincoln University.

These area institutions of higher education are not members of the United Negro College Fund which provides financial support to most historically African-American institutions. Yet, these local institutions have served, and continue to serve thousands upon thousands of residents in the Delaware Valley.

PURPOSE
To assist graduating high school seniors in continuing their post-secondary educational opportunities, despite financial roadblocks facing the next generation, and that education provides that opportunity to achieve that level of preparedness.

To that end, the Foundation is expanding its scholarship outreach to include additional students in the Philadelphia Delaware Valley area. This effort will be launched with the awarding of a $500 scholarship to eight (8) worthy and deserving students matriculated at Cheyney University as of September 2011.

The initial payment of $500 will be awarded at the beginning of the student’s fall semester. If additional funding is available, students may apply again for the spring semester.

ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS
Applicant must submit the following:

1. A completed application, accompanied by one’s high school transcript (for high school seniors) or college transcript (for students currently enrolled at Cheyney University).
2. Character references may be included from adults familiar with student’s non-academic activities, community involvement or leadership skills.

All students must maintain at least a “C” average and agree to attend the check presentation ceremony in mid- to late August.

DEADLINE
Applications must be completed and submitted no later than Friday, August 5, 2011. Late or incomplete applications will not be considered. Please return completed package to: Mandy Santiago, Office of Institutional Advancement, Biddle Hall - Room 130, 1837 University Circle, Cheyney, PA 19319.
