13 New Scholarships Donated for Awarding at the NASFAA Conference
The scholarship give-away at the NASFAA Conference in Seattle has been a
huge success since its inception, with 90 scholarships worth over $65,000 being
raffled at last year's Conference alone. NASFAA is again encouraging
exhibitors to hold drawings for scholarships at the Conference in conjunction with,
or in lieu of, other prizes they would normally give.
Since the last announcement was made, four
more companies have indicated that they also will be giving away scholarship at
the Conference. These new donations totaling $10,000 raise the total to 58 scholarships worth $40,500. We will keep you apprised of others as they are confirmed. A current list of
donors appears below.
