2009 ISSA Foundation Scholarship Program
Application Deadline April 1st!

Applications are being accepted for the 2009 ISSA Foundation Scholarship Program, which makes scholarships available to ISSA member company employees and their family members! The majority of the estimated 50 scholarship awards to be presented for the 2009-10 academic year are set in the amount of US$3,000 each.

To be eligible for the scholarships, applicants must plan on attending an accredited four-year institution of higher learning in the fall of 2009. Scholarship winners will be selected based on the criteria stated in the application. Applications should be postmarked no later than April 1, 2009 in order to be considered, and can be downloaded at www.issafoundation.org. ISSA encourages its members to take advantage of this scholarship program. Applications can be obtained by visiting the ISSA Foundation website or by contacting Tracy Weber at 800-225-4772.
Last year, more than 50 scholarships amounting to more than $160,000 were awarded. In 2009, a total of 24 District Scholarships will be awarded to residents of the eight ISSA membership districts in the United States. Also available are 20-plus designated awards, including the the Louis G. Goorland Award; the New England Sanitary Supply Association Award; the New Jersey Sanitary Supply Association Award (Two scholarships); the NYCO/Robert J. and Mary Ann Stahurski Award; the RDA Advantage Scholarship Award; the Roger and Victoria Parrott Award; the Samuel A. Robin Award; Southern California Sanitary Supply Award; the Spartan Chemical Co.’s E.T. Swigart Award, and the Edward Lane National Sanitary Supply Co Award, which is added to one of the 24 District Scholarship winners to bring this award recipient’s total to $6,000. Also available is the Jack D. Ramaley Award, which provides up to four years of undergraduate and/or graduate school - a potential $12,000 total award - as long as the recipient maintains a “B” or better average and continues to exemplify leadership qualities.
