Qualified students from your school are invited to apply for our 2019 Education Fund grants. The Education Fund provides awards of $10,000 to assist mature women in realizing their full potential and to positively impact their families and communities. The funds can be used for any expense that enables students to stay in school and complete their degrees such as tuition, child care, transportation or rent. Financial need is just one selection factor. Applicants must also be New York City residents attending New York City colleges at least part-time and, after June 2019, must have a minimum of nine credits remaining to complete their first associate or bachelor degree. A detailed comprehensive list of the eligibility requirements can be found HERE.<https://womensforumny.org/?mailpoet_router&endpoint=track&action=click&data=WyI3MTcyIiwiMzYyNzU0IiwiMjkiLCIyNTRmZTM0MzU2MDUiLGZhbHNlXQ> Please assist in distributing the award application, information sheet and brochure to appropriate students and to department directors who can guide candidates in navigating the application process.
