Good Tidings Foundation
Scholarship Name: Good Tidings Foundation Scholarship
Description: If you are in a tough financial situation, getting to class on time and making ends meet might be difficult enough, without the added pressures of homework and after school activities. Add to that having to find an after-school job to either help out at home or just have a little extra spending money. Having time for community service and volunteering can seem almost impossible. But for those students who are able to not only find time for themselves, but also time to help other, the Good Tidings Foundation (based in the San Francisco Bay area) has created a scholarship fund for students who are active in their communities and demonstrate financial need.
Award: $5,000
Awards Per Year: 20
Award Is Open To: High School Seniors
