[YEP-DC] MLK Scholarship Application Day - Volunteers Needed

We are looking for volunteers to assist the Class of 2015 with college scholarship applications!

On Martin Luther King Jr. Day - Monday January 19th - Thurgood Marshall Academy Public Charter High School is hosting a Scholarship Application Day for seniors. This is an annual event in which seniors meet with community volunteers to work on scholarship and college applications. Volunteers work one-on-one with seniors on the applications and scholarship essays to help brainstorm ideas and edit their writing. 

Thurgood Marshall Academy graduates have a track record of college success: 100% of graduating seniors have been accepted to college, and over 90% enroll in college within one year of graduating from high school. Last year, graduates in the Class of 2014 earned over $5.6 million in scholarships, the most in the school's 14-year history.

The event will take place at Thurgood Marshall Academy. Breakfast will be served at 9:30, followed by a work session from 10-12.  The school is located at 2427 Martin Luther King Jr Ave SE, directly across the street from the Anacostia metro station on the green line.  

For more information, please contact Emma Levine, Alumni Program Manager, at elevine@tmapchs.org or 202-563-6862 x 266.

Hope to see you there!
