AARP Foundation Women's Scholarship Program
The AARP Foundation has announced its second annual Women's Scholarship Program. The scholarships will provide funds to women 40+ who are seeking new job skills, training and educational opportunities to support themselves and their families. The AARP Foundation Women's Scholarship Program is available to eligible individuals with moderate to lower incomes and limited financial resources. To be eligible for the scholarships, applicants must: be female age 40 or over (as of August 31, 2008); be able to demonstrate financial need; and be enrolled in an accredited post-secondary school or training program within 6 months of the scholarship award date. Priority consideration is given to women in three categories: women raising children of another family member (such as grandparents raising grandchildren, or those raising siblings or nieces/nephews); women who have been out of the workforce for an extended period of time; and women in dead end jobs (those with no opportunity for advancement, low pay and lacking either health or retirement benefits). Application deadline: August 22, 2008.

Quotes from satisfied customers:
"The book is very 'meat-y' and provides some excellent resources that I, as a five-year grant writer for youth programs, have not yet considered. The free gifts are especially thoughtful. So, thanks again! "
D. Heit, Youth Co-Op
"This book is a reliable source of information for non profit organizations who work with children. As our organization provides several educational and artistic programs we have been lucky to have Lisa Merritt as our grant writer and consultant. She is definitively an expert in her field. "
