Lions Foundation Scholarships

Colorado Lions Foundation Scholarship Endowment Fund

 

The time has arrived for our Colorado graduating seniors to be applying for scholarships.  The scholarship committee needs your help to disseminate the applications to these students in your local communities.  Applications can be found on our website   www.denverlions.org under About US - Social Services or at www.COLions.org  or email Lion Barbara Anderson at pal213@msn.com.

 

This will be the 12^th year of awarding four (4) students each a $2500.00 scholarships.  

 

Since 2004 when Sky Schuyler founded the scholarship program as a way to involve and spread Lionism to our youth, as many as seventy-five (75) to one hundred and fifty (150) applications have been reviewed each year by the scholarship committee.  The scholarship committee consists of two(2)  members from each of the four (4) districts (SE, West, NE, Central).  The applications go through a two (2) selection process. First each application is reviewed by the respective district from which it was originated.  The top five (5) applications are selected to progress to the final selections. The eight (8) committee members are given the top five (5) applications from each district totaling twenty (20) applications to review. Each committee member then selects their top applications.  Through this process Colorado Lion’s enhance the future of four (4) students with a $2,500.00 scholarship.
