Re: Setting a deadline for applications for this year

I've been thinking more about the Scholarship Fund, lately, due to hearing about
families who
are concerned about being able to afford the RDIos.. I am not sure I have any
great ideas for
funding for those families... but I wondered whether the Scholarship Fund could
start by just
awarding 3-month scholarships ($75 US each) to those families who are already
working w/ a
consultant but who just can't afford an extra $25/month for the Lite version of
the RDIos?
(On the thread about "is this worth $50?" on the RDIos parents forum, I have
provided the
info to the Scholarship Fund .. but wasn't really sure when scholarships would
be awarded or
anything and it would be nice to be able to let people know what is happening
there .. maybe
we should provide an update in the newsletter??

Hey-- I think the mini-scholarships are a great idea. What do the others think? Perhaps this could be a separate award for families who could be "nominated"...
