$10,000 Scholarships for BIPOC & LGBTQ Students
Signal boosting to amplify this incredible opportunity:
"My name is Nguyen Pham, and earlier this year, I created the Mensa Foundation's first-ever Progress Pride Scholarship to lift and center marginalized students at the intersection of BIPOC and LGBTQ.
The Progress Pride Scholarship has just officially launched, and I'm spreading the word to drum up interest in the application. Up for grabs are two $10k college scholarships -- the Foundation's largest scholarship awards ever -- for those who identify as BIPOC and LGBTQ and who have a demonstrated record of positive service to the BIPOC and LGBTQ communities.
An essay is all that's required up front, due January 15, 2022. Open to all U.S. university students. Awardee(s) will be selected in early 2022 and will then need to furnish a résumé/CV.
To help with promotion, I've assembled an info page at https://progresspride.org/ as well as an e-flier, included below and attached as a forwardable image.
Will you help promote this opportunity by sharing these resources onward with your students? I so appreciate any support you can offer.
Please let me know of any questions or comments. Thanks so much, and enjoy the upcoming holidays!
Cheers,
Nguyen Pham
