Posted By: Reginald Culpepper on March 02, 2020 FEATURED Content Applications are now open for the 2020 Nyra Renee Shaw-Hemphill Memorial Scholarship. This memorial fund was started to honor the memory of a beloved only child and daughter by her mother, supporting family, and friends. Nyra passed away of a congenital heart disease while participating in an on-campus activity on October 3, 2019, at the tender age of 20-years-old. Soon after her daughter's transition, the mother wanted to honor her memory by supporting students like her - those who do not have the perfect GPA and therefore fly under the radar for a number of scholarships. There are two (2) separate scholarship awards with different criteria. Please check out the options and apply to the one (or both) that best suits you. Scholarship A Criteria - 2.0 GPA or Higher - Accepted to a Four Year Degree Program at an HBCU - Full-Time Student Status - Single Parent Household - Income Less than $80,000 - High School Senior in Hamilton County, Ohio Scholarship B Criteria - 2.25 GPA or Higher - Accepted to Tuskegee University for a 4 Year Degree - Full-Time Status - Single Parent Household - Income Less than $80,000 - A United States Citizen | Resident Application instructions also include filling out a form, writing an essay, and providing a letter of reference.
