AFA’s Teen Alzheimer’s Awareness Scholarship provides educational funding to college-bound high school seniors who have been impacted by Alzheimer’s disease. Applicants are asked to write an essay (1,500 word maximum) describing the impact of Alzheimer’s disease or another dementia-related illness on themselves, their families or their communities, and what they have learned from it. Winners are chosen based off of their essay scores. The grand prize winner receives $5,000, with additional prizes awarded for runners up. More than $350,000 in college scholarships have been awarded since the program’s inception. 
Entries for the 2022 contest are now being accepted. The entry deadline is March 1, 2022.

Lace-up those sneakers rising sixth and seventh graders! if you love basketball and want to gain experience training alongside real college basketball players and coaches, we provide scholarships each year for the Carolina Basketball School at UNC-Chapel Hill and the Wolfpack Women’s Basketball Camp at NC State University.

All expenses for the overnight camps will be paid by the cooperative. Campers are responsible for their own transportation to and from the camp. The Carolina Basketball School at UNC will take place June 18-22 and the Wolfpack Women’s Basketball Camp will occur June 19-22.
While the physical benefits of playing sports are quite obvious, we’re confident campers will gain new skills that will develop their character and help them excel on and off the court, such as collaborating with teammates, setting goals, and establishing new friendships.
Contestants are judged on academic records, extra-curricular activities, and the content of two short essays. Applications must be submitted by March 31. Scholarship winners will be announced in May.
