Jim Robert’s Memorial Scholarship Fund.
At
the 2010 annual conference, Gary Kelman announced that NAEP
met its initial goal of riasing $10,000 for the Jim ROberts
Memorial Scholarship Fund. The California AEP matched
NAEP's balance and the amount in the fund now stands at
approximately $21,000. NAEP's goal is still to raise
fund's balance $50,000 during the next four years.
The
scholarship was initially announced at the 2008 NAEP
Conference in San Diego. A scholarship will be
awarded annually at the NAEP conference to a student
currently enrolled in an environmental program at any
accredited university or college in the United States, its
territories or Canada. Official applications will be
provided on the NAEP website. Students supply basic
information, transcripts and prepare an essay including
their personal reflection on how education will support
ethical work on environmental problems. The applications
are evaluated by the Scholarship Committee and one honoree
receives an award between $500-$1000, depending on the
available endowment. These awards can be used for education
expenses including tuition and books.
If you would like to make a contribution, please send
