Scholarship Renewals

Friends of Mascoma Foundation is pleased to announce that, starting in 2019, scholarships will be renewable for past recipients up to three times!

Eligibility:

Past recipients must be currently enrolled in a higher education program.
Past recipients must sign up to be a fundraising champion for FOM during NH Gives.
Past recipients who wish to renew their scholarship are required to email scholarships@friendsofmascoma.org before NH Gives to notify FOM of intent to renew and provide current contact information.

Conditions:

Only funds raised during NH Gives (a 24-hour period) are eligible for scholarship funding, any other methods of fundraising do not count towards eligibility for scholarship renewal.
Fundraising champions will receive 50% of the amount they have raised as a scholarship (please seen “General Guidelines & Information” to see how the remaining 50% will be used).
Past recipients must also provide proof of enrollment and scholarship remittal information by August 1st.
Past recipients may renew scholarships up to three times, for a total of four scholarships.
FOM does not guarantee the amount of the renewed scholarships, it is based on fundraising, and could be more or less than past scholarships.

General Guidelines & Information:

Individuals pursuing the renewable scholarship should also sign up to be a fundraising champion on the Friends of Mascoma NH Gives profile by June 7th.
NH Gives will take place in June 2024. Stay tuned for the TBD date.
For general information on NH Gives, please visit their website.
For information on FOM’s NH Gives fundraising campaign, please visit our NH Gives page.
FOM will provide fundraising tips to all fundraising champions by June 1st.
Please note that it is crucial that donations are during NH Gives, not before or after, otherwise the donations do not count toward NH Gives prizes. NH Gives prizes are how FOM funds 1-2 scholarships each year.
After NH Gives is over, scholarship amounts will be calculated and reported to recipients. Fundraising champions will receive 50% of the amount they have raised as a scholarship. The remaining 50% of the funds will be used to deposited into FOM’s scholarship fund to ensure the longevity of the program and to cover overhead associated with the NH Gives fundraising campaign.
