USAWOA Scholarship Foundation 2010/2011 School Year Awards

 

The Selection Committee worked very hard on Saturday 10 July 2010 and completed the review of the applications we received for scholarships this cycle.  A total of 27 applicants were received, one was not qualified to submit and one was mailed 20 days after the cutoff date and disallowed.  Of the 25 valid applications we are able to fund seventeen (17) $1,000.00 scholarships this year, based on the funds available.

 

The Foundation thanks CW4 (Ret) William R. Buss, Committee Chairman, CW5 (Ret) Ken Fowler, CW5 (Ret) Ken Draper and CW4 (Ret) Harold Looney for their yeomen’s service in evaluating, scoring and rank ordering the applicants.  This is not a simple task and it grows in complexity each year as the submissions become more detailed and complex.

 

Through the generosity of many folks this year we are able to provide several different scholarships.  We are awarding a four year on-line scholarship provided by Grantham University and the following $1,000.00 scholarships.  Four Allnatt Memorial Scholarships, two CW4  (Ret) Alfred C. Alexander Scholarships,( Chief Alexander donated two thirds of his USAWOA Annual Raffle winnings to the foundation in support of our programs), one Gina M Scalzo Scholarship donated by her parents CW5  (Ret) Richard and Mrs. Phyllis Scalzo and ten USAWOA Foundation Regular Scholarships.

 

The participation of each and every USAWOA member contributing to the foundation both directly and by way of the annual International Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) are the vehicles by which we are able to provide this assistance to these very deserving young folks.  The foundation, its Board of Directors and all applicants thank each of you for your contributions to this program.
