PanHellenic Scholarship Fund in $250,000 Drive for 2009

This year more students will be selected based on financial need!

Scholarship Drive 2009

Despite the current financial crisis, the PanHellenic Scholarship Foundation set a goal to repeat last year's funds distribution and award $250,000 to twenty-five deserving students. "...and this year, our goal is to put emphasis on more students with financial need than ever before. We believe that by helping students financially, the Foundation provides our youth a platform for significant accomplishments over the course of their lives," said the Chairman of the PanHellenic Scholarship Foundation, Chris P. Tomaras.

Grant Awards

The PanHellenic Scholarship Awards of $10,000 each are offered to recognize students of high scholastic achievement and to provide support to those in financial need. The awards are available to U.S. high school graduates and college students of Hellenic descent.

Every Donation Helps

The Foundation continues to offer potential donors the opportunity to donate a Scholarship bearing a name of their own choice and present it at the Foundation's awards ceremony.

Of course, any size donation is appreciated and will be duly recognized. With the special benefits that are included and the donation being tax deductible, every contribution is a meaningful deed," said Mr. Tomaras. Payments can be made online or mailed to our office.
