2007 was the best year so far for scholarship grants. CFA gave away $21,000 in scholarships. This number represents a 100 percent increase from the 2006 grants awarded. And it is our intention to double the grant once again, for 2008.
The Chaldean Student Scholarship Commencement Program began as our way to award Chaldean students of merit with college tuition assistance. The CFA recognized that no scholarships existed solely for Chaldean students. The CFA is an advocate of education and encourages all of the youth in our community to become educated to enhance their success in life. This scholarship program is our way of showing support. |
