Subj : Delta Division News To : All From : Daryl Stout Date : Tue Nov 02 2021 08:18:48 Attention Delta Division Members, If you have or know a student amateur radio operator, here is a tremendous opportunity to help further their education. I bring greetings from The ARRL Foundation and pass the following from our foundation board and K5RAV: The ARRL Foundation scholarship application period for the academic year 2022-2023 opens on November 1st and ends on December 31, 2021. I am asking you as a Director to notify your Division membership of this opportunity. The Foundation issued $550,000 in scholarships for 2021-2022 and for the academic year 2022-2023 there has been a significant increase in the number of large dollar scholarships available thanks to a generous contribution from Amateur Radio Digital Communications, Inc. (ARDC). For the academic year 2022-2023, 130 scholarships will be offered totaling $900,000! There are twenty $25,000 scholarships, four $15,000, seventeen $10,000 scholarships, nine $5,000 scholarships as well as dozens of $1,000 and $500 scholarships. The descriptions of the scholarships available are on line. http://www.arrl.org/scholarship-descriptions It is also very easy to apply as the scholarship application is on line. http://www.arrl.org/scholarship-application Since only amateur radio operator students may apply, the chances of being selected for a scholarship are good. It would be a shame for your members to miss this opportunity. Please place a notice in your Newsletter or send a separate E-Mail to your Division to let your members know that the ARRL Foundation offers over 130 scholarships and it only takes a simple online application to apply. Since 1973, the ARRL Foundation, with the generosity of many donors and the hard work of a long line of dedicated Foundation Directors, has had a positive impact on the lives of many young amateur radio operator students. To ensure that this positive impact does not wane, I ask each of you to timely notify your members of this opportunity. Being awarded an ARRL Foundation scholarship could mean the difference in whether a student can pursue their education in 2022-2023 or not. Please pass this information on to anyone you think might benefit from the ARRL scholarships. 73 DE K5UZ -------------------------------------------------------------------- ARRL Delta Division Director: David A Norris, K5UZ k5uz@arrl.org -------------------------------------------------------------------- --- SBBSecho 3.14-Win32 * Origin: The Thunderbolt BBS - Little Rock, Arkansas (954:895/7) .
