ELIZABETH NASH FOUNDATION
Scholarship Program
The Elizabeth Nash Foundation will award scholarships to assist persons with
Cystic Fibrosis (CF) to pursue undergraduate and graduate degrees.
OVERVIEW
Scholarships will be awarded on the basis of demonstrated need and
accomplishment, both academic and other. Grants will be made each year to
persons with CF who exhibit clear academic goals and a commitment to
participate in activities outside the classroom. Grants will be made
directly to the academic institution to assist in covering the cost of
tuition and fees.
The Elizabeth Nash Foundation will award grants ranging from $500 to $2,000.
Scholarships are for one year only and can be applied to tuition and fees
for the fall or spring semester depending on the student’s needs.
Individuals may re-apply for subsequent years.
APPLICANT EVALUATION
The applicant’s scholastic record, character, demonstrated leadership,
service to the community, and need for financial assistance will be
evaluated by the Elizabeth Nash Foundation Scholarship Committee when
selecting recipients. In addition to completing a short data form,
applicants are required to submit a letter from a social worker supporting
the applicant’s financial need as well as specific details of fees and
tuition costs from their academic institution. Applicants will also be
required to submit a one page essay, letter of recommendation from a teacher
and academic transcript.
Scholarship recipients must be willing to support the Elizabeth Nash
Foundation Scholarship Program by speaking at one local event or writing an
article for publication by the Foundation.
