The Violet Richardson Award Applications Now Available! UPDATED!

Deadline: December 1, 2012

Are you a young woman between the ages of 14 and 17 who volunteers in your community or school? 

The Violet Richardson Award recognizes young women who make the community and world a better place through volunteer efforts such as: fighting drugs, crime and violence; cleaning up the environment; and working to end discrimination and poverty.

Volunteer actions that benefit women or girls are of particular interest.  Soroptimist is an organization of women whose members volunteer in their communities, often working on the same problems that you do.

If you are a young woman who believes in the power of volunteer action, then you may be eligible to win a Violet Richardson Award of $750 and receive a donation of $250 for the charity of your choice.  Deadline for application is December 1, 2012.

Applications are now available in the Counseling Office in the Scholarship Box.

Stop by and pick one up today!
