Each year, the Jeffery Isaiah David Memorial Foundation will award scholarships to graduating high school seniors and continuing education students seeking to continue their higher educational goals. The scholarships are allocated for the current school year. They must be utilized to assist with expenses related to attending college, vocational, or trade school of their choice for tuition, fees, and/or materials. This is offered twice a year, so there will be two due dates each semester.
To apply for the scholarship, please fill out the online form and upload your transcripts, letters of recommendation, and college acceptance letter. If you are a returning student, please make sure to upload your current year-end transcript. Additionally, you must submit a written essay or a video upload based on one of the prompt questions provided in the application. The Foundation will carefully verify all information provided before awarding scholarships to the chosen applicants. Dollar amounts will vary for this scholarship.
