Port City Links have worked jointly with NASA partners to provide Science Fair project development assistance and to host the Science Fair at Gregg. You may recall my daughter Maria's Recycled Reads project donated books to Gregg and Evan has an ongoing campaign "Project Warm-Up" collecting jackets, coats, sweaters, blankets, benefiting families at Gregg. I personally volunteered with the science fair project development working with kids at Gregg and if not for our NASA and Links volunteers 1 Science Teacher would have 4 classes of students to assist with Science Fair project development, supplies, review of reports, etc. Volunteer in a school, our teachers need you! Oh, one more fair fact- there will be scholarship and SAT prep experts at the Fair with a BOOTH!!!

The mission of IDEAL is to provide distinctive and unique outreach programs that promote academic excellence and diversity.

If you have a student you wish to nominate, please encourage early application. All of our summer camps, along with a brief description, are listed below.

(JSC-LD111) Subject: FW: Scholarship Opportunities Hi Donna, The below list of scholarship opportunities was provided to me by my Dartmouth College network. Please use your judgment in circulating this list to your network as it may be a duplication of what you have distributed in the past. Nevertheless, I wanted to err on the downside by sending it to you. Thanks, Tyrone Byrd Scholarships Going to Waste Please Share AFRICAN AMERICAN STUDENTS ARE NOT APPLYING! Even if you do not have a college-aged child at home, please share this with someone who does, pass this scholarship information on to anyone and everyone that comes to mind. Though there are a number of companies and organizations that have donated monies for scholarships use to African Americans, a great deal of the money is being returned because of a lack of interest. No one is going to knock on our doors and ask if we can use a scholarship. Take the initiative to get your children involved. There is no need for money to be returned to donating companies because we fail to apply for it. Please pass this information on to family members, nieces, nephews, friends with children etc. We must get the word out that money is available. If you are a college student or getting ready to become one, you probably already know how useful additional money can be. Our youth really could use these scholarships. Thanks!
