| RMRC is sponsoring a scholarship program for current high school seniors who have relocated to Colorado. The one-time award of $1,500 for each scholarship will be presented to two area high school seniors. The award will be sent directly to the college (2-year or 4-year) or university that the student will be attending to assist with tuition or any other applicable expenses. RMRC will select a scholarship winner based on the strength of the eligible applicant’s total completed application that includes academic performance, extra-curricular activities, and an essay addressing the impact relocation has had on their life and impactful skills or life experiences developed as a result of the relocation. Winners will be invited to the RMRC Spring Event on April 8th at Mile High Stadium to read their essays. |
