The American Fire Sprinkler Association
Scholarship Name: AFSA Scholarship Contest
Description: The American Fire Sprinkler Association is so passionate about the life-saving work of fire sprinklers that they are giving away several $2,000 scholarships to help raise awareness. All you have to do is answer a 10-question, online quiz about fire safety to be entered into a drawing to win the money. But wait, it gets better. The answers to the quiz can be found in an essay that you can download from the AFSA website. And better yet, you get to use the essay while answering the questions. That’s right, it’s an open book quiz! The more answers you get right (and really, you should be getting them all right!), the more chances you have to win.
Award: $2,000
Awards per Year: 10
Award is Open to: High School Students
