Summer Camp Opportunity for Daughters of Disabled Military Personnel
Girls in grades K-12 who are daughters of disabled military personnel and would like the chance to attend Girl Scout camp are encouraged to apply for the John Middleton Parker Memorial Scholarship. Applicants do not have to be current Girl Scouts.
What are the eligibility requirements?
Eligibility is based on household income and family size. Applicants must be able to provide disability and income documentation. Girls who have already been determined eligible for financial assistance, through Girl Scouts of Western Washington (GSWW), are still eligible for this scholarship, provided they meet the other qualifications.
Where is this opportunity available?
GSWW has three resident camps and numerous volunteer-run camps. Each camp provides girls with the chance to learn, grow, explore and build relationships, all while having fun! Recipients can apply the scholarship to the GSWW camp of their choice.
When is this happening?
Scholarship and GSWW financial assistance applications are being accepted NOW for camp sessions during the summer of 2010.
Every girl deserves the opportunity to participate in the incredible programs that Girl Scouts has to offer. Camp is a great place for fun, but it is more than that; camp is a place to build lifelong skills that are often overlooked in other learning opportunities. What better way for girls to be involved in an organization dedicated to building girls of courage, confidence and character?
