The MDP REACH non-profit organization has announced the deadline for their scholarship application packet as April 2nd, 2024. Dedicated to fostering the growth and education of local youth, MDP REACH is inviting graduating seniors within the Miss-Lou region with a GPA of 3.2 or higher to apply for this educational scholarship.
Prospective scholars are required to provide a GPA verification from their guidance counselor and must demonstrate their intent to further their education at a community college or a four-year institution. Proof of acceptance and enrollment must accompany the application.
MDP REACH emphasizes the importance of community and self-reflection in their scholarship application process, asking applicants to ponder and write an essay on the significance of the phrase, “How you do anything, is how you do everything.” The essay is to be 750 words or less, offering a chance for students to convey their understanding of consistency and dedication in all aspects of life.
Furthermore, a letter of reference from a community stakeholder is also a requirement for the application. Stakeholders can range from educators, bankers, lawyers, and pastors to members of a civic or professional organization, neighbors, political figures, firefighters, or police/sheriff department personnel.
The scholarship opportunity provided by MDP REACH underlines the organization’s commitment to the academic and personal development of students in the Miss-Lou area. Graduating seniors looking to take the next step in their educational journey are encouraged to submit their scholarship applications before the April 2nd deadline.
