2011 USARA Legacy Scholarship Award Winners Congratulations! (each is shown at the right side of this page). The USARA Legacy Scholarship Program is a memorial to selfless service and contributions made to our country by USARA members. These awards are given in their honor. The program provides an opportunity to provide financial assistance to qualified dependents of USARA members in furthering their education. See the USARA Legacy Scholarship Information page for program details. This year’s applicants were required to submit specific academic information; describe His/her educational and professional goals and objectives; describe membership/involvement in school and community activities; and write a 500 word essay to describe how parts/words of the Ranger Creed have applied or will apply to his/her personal development and future. They were to include how the values/ideals of the USARA member (their father, grandfather, or great-grandfather) contributed to his/her personal growth (a copy of the Ranger Creed was provided). Final scholarship award selection was based on the final, weighted scores and order of merit of all applicants; and the amount of funds available this year. The scholarship program is supported by voluntary donations from USARA members and public donations. The number of scholarships to be awarded annually will vary; however, award amounts will be no less than $1,000. If you would like to contribute financially to the USARA Legacy Scholarship Program you may do so securely at our website online, or send a donation to: USARA Legacy Scholarship Fund U. S. Army Ranger Association, Inc. P.O. Box 52126 Fort Benning, GA 31995-2126 www.ranger.org |
