SCHOLARSHIP PROVISIONS:
Scholarship awards vary for high school, technical school and college depending on the needs and educational expenses of the student. Scholarships may cover tuition, books, housing, meals, transportation, and/or supplement the income of the family to compensate for money the student would earn by dropping out of school. Scholarships are awarded for one year provided the student maintains acceptable grades each term (six weeks/quarter/semester). Scholarships cannot exceed a set maximum per year (currently up to $5,000. Renewals are contingent upon the availability of funds. ELIGIBILITY: Any student between the ages of 16-25 whose parent's on-the-job death or injury resulted in a substantial decline in family income is eligible. The applicant must meet adequate academic standards set by the selection committee. Scholarships may be used to pay for high school, technical school or college tuition, books, housing, meals or transportation. Another goal of Kids’ Chance is to prevent students from dropping out of school. SCHOLARSHIP DOWNLOAD Kids’ Chance of North Carolina Fact Sheet (doc) |
