I think it's good of them to make scholarships available to dependents as well...
Lowe’s Scholarships for Military Personnel and Dependents (through August 17, 2007)
Earlier this month (June 2007), Hire A Hero announced that it is offering 122 academic scholarships to active and transitioning military personnel, veterans, National Guard Members, Reservists and their spouses.
That scholarship offering has been expanded and is now also available to dependents of military personnel and veterans.
"When announcing our Hire A Hero scholarship opportunities to the public, we received a large amount of interest from dependents of military personnel and veterans," stated Dan Caulfield, Hire A Hero Executive Director. "Because of that interest, we have decided to open up the scholarship opportunities to dependents. Like those who have served, they too have sacrificed and deserve the opportunity to gain scholarships to help pay for their higher education studies."
All American service members, veterans and spouses are encouraged to apply for the scholarships. The application process involves registering on the Hire A Hero website for free at
http://www.hireahero.com/ and uploading a written essay or short video. All applications are due on or before August 17th and winners will be announced in late August.
