Grantville-Allied Gardens Kiwanis Foundation
General Information on Scholarship Program
The Grantville-Allied Gardens Kiwanis Foundation offers scholarships.
General Information: Scholarships are offered to our Circle K and Key Club members planning to attend or are enrolled in a four-year college. (Note to Circle K applicants: All awards will be made to undergraduate students meeting all requirements. You may continue to apply in each undergraduate year.) The scholarship is to cover tuition, books and other college fees for the complete college year immediately following the award. The scholarship will be sent directly to the College or University for distribution at the time the expenses are incurred by the student. Qualifications: These scholarships are reviewed and considered based on the following:
- A correctly completed application
- Service with K-family organizations (K-kids, Builders, Key Club, KIWINIS, and Circle K)
- Input from advisors of Circle K and Key Club
- Your written summary about yourself
- Your letters of recommendation
- Extra-Curricular school activities (not related to Kiwanis Family)
