Thanks to the generosity of former Volunteers for Outdoor Colorado (VOC) Board Member Rick Grossman and his wife Susie, VOC is able to offer two $5,000 scholarships each year to Colorado residents who have demonstrated a commitment to caring for the outdoors and intend to pursue a degree in a field related to natural resources or outdoor recreation at an accredited 2- or 4-year college in Colorado.
This scholarship is for "non-traditional" students, which typically includes postsecondary students who are 25 years or older and may, for example, have delayed college enrollment, have dependents other than a spouse, and/or are seeking a new career in environmental or nonprofit stewardship work. Applicants are also required to have engaged in at least 3 outdoor stewardship volunteer projects with any group in the last three years. Applications are currently being accepted until September 16 for this scholarship; to review eligibility criteria and apply, visit www.voc.org/scholarship.
