The American Red Cross
Through its many local chapters the Red Cross provides a variety of services particularly during times of national disasters. The Red Cross also sponsors the Junior Red Cross. If you have volunteered with the organization, ask about the Navin Narayan Scholarship.
Scholarships from religious organizations
If you are a member of an organized religion ask your minister, pastor, reverend, rabbi, priest or monk if the church sponsors a scholarship. Many religious organizations offer awards to members of their congregation. If they don’t, politely suggest that they should. Make sure you also check out the national or international organization of the church.
In addition to any scholarships that the local church awards, the national office of the Presbyterian Church, for example, also awards scholarships nationally. Below is just a sample of the organized religions that offer scholarships to their members.
