Realizing Your Self Worth Scholarship Fund

FFC's focus on youth development, specifically motivated the establishment of our "Realizing Your Self Worth Scholarship Fund". 

This will be a predetermined amount to be awarded to one or more graduating seniors each calendar year.  The scholarship amount may change from year to year depending on the availability of funds.  

This points to the need for additional resources to ensure that no child is left behind. 

This scholarship fund will award annual scholarships to graduating youths, or graduating seniors, who will pursue post-secondary education at the technical, as well as four-year college and university level.  

The FFC Scholarship is currently open to FFC Members who participante in Community events and Outreach in South Florida, USA.

Empowering the People to Empower Themselves and Share that Power by Giving Back to the World

Even if you do not have a college-aged child at home, please share this with someone who does, pass this scholarship information on to anyone and everyone that comes to mind. Though there are a number of companies and organizations that have donated monies for scholarships use to Minority Americans, a great deal of the money is being returned because of a lack of interest.

No one is going to knock on our doors and ask if we can use a scholarship. Take the initiative to get your children involved. There is no need for money to be returned to donating companies because we fail to apply for it.

Please pass this information on to family members, nieces, nephews,
friends with children etc. We must get the word out that money is available.

If you are a college student or getting ready to become one, you probably already know how useful additional money can be. Our youth really could use these scholarships. Thanks!
