| Rainbow SIG Scholarship Hosted by The Fund for Education Abroad (FEA) |
September 21, 2011
NAFSA's Rainbow SIG is pleased to announce that plans for a Rainbow SIG scholarship are moving forward hosted by The Fund for Education Abroad (FEA) with a goal is to award a single $5000-10,000 scholarship on an annual basis to GLBT study abroad students. Donations are tax-deductible. Because FEA is donating its services, 100% of donations will go to the scholarship fund. They will also be matched by the SIG (up to $2500) through the end of this year. To make a donation, go to FEA's Web site, click donate now, and select the drop-down option for "FEA Rainbow Scholarship." You can also send a check made out to “Fund for Education Abroad” with a note indicating that the donation should be earmarked for the FEA Rainbow Scholarship. FEA's mailing address is 1920 N Street NW Suite 200, Washington, DC 20036. |
