The UEA Children At Risk Foundation Spring 2023 Scholarships are OPEN!
Nominations and student applications must be submitted by April 3, 2023.
After her father unexpectedly passed away, Dania knew that the finances would not be there for her to reach her dream of being a first-generation college student and a business major.
Thanks to the UEA member who nominated her and the many donations made to the UEA Children At Risk Foundation, Dania received a $3,000 scholarship from CARF in the Spring of 2021.
“I wasn’t planning to go…but this scholarship gave me motivation. People do believe in me, and they are investing money in me. I want them to know their money is worth something, ” said Dania.
Dania is currently in her second year studying business at Utah State University.
As educators, you know students who, for whatever reason, are at risk of not continuing their education beyond high school. Often these students would never consider applying for scholarships on their own. Your nomination could make all the difference for our most vulnerable students like Dania – and only UEA members are invited to submit.
Scholarships range from $500 to $10,0000 and may be applied to trade school, tech certification, community college, university, or other post-secondary education.
