Fundraising is the Cornerstone Of Philanthropy
HOW DOES YOUR GIVING MAKE A DIFFERENCE?
The Featherstone Scholarship will help pay for student education and living expenses and can actually reduce the risk of dropping out and not getting the degree you want. A student may even be able to consider a more selective institution or major. By reducing financial concerns, scholarships can also mean more time for studying and learning, which can lead to better grades and retention of knowledge and increase chances for continuing on to graduate school
