Mother Moon Service Scholarship Applications Due

The Community Foundation of Northeast Iowa invites 11th graders in the Cedar Valley to apply for the Mother Moon Service Scholarship. There are 11 high schools in the Cedar Valley eligible for the scholarship: Waterloo Christian School, Hudson High School, Cedar Falls High School, Northern University High School, Dunkerton High School, East High School, Columbus High School, West High School, Union High School, Don Bosco High School, and Valley Lutheran High School.

Each year, applications and scholarship brochures are distributed throughout area high schools. This scholarship is unique because it is designed for high school Juniors, and it is focused primarily on volunteerism. Those who apply for this service scholarship are awarded $500 upon completion of their senior year of high school. After being selected, recipients are responsible for continuing to serve their communities, marketing the scholarship for the following year and advocating for volunteer service.

We are asking for your help in promoting the Mother Moon Service Scholarship to juniors you may know. Students who volunteer at your organizations would be great applicants. All application materials can be found online at www.cfneia.org. 

Applications must be postmarked by March 5, 2010. If you have any
further questions, please e-mail Kari McCann, recipient of the Mother
Moon Service Fellowship at kari.e.mccann@gmail.com. Thank you for
your support of the Mother Moon Service Scholarship.
