NEW 11-10-02 FOUNDATION SCHOLAR IS
OLD 11-10-02 FOUNDATION SCHOLAR THANKS IN PART
TO OTHER 11-10-02 FOUNDATION SCHOLAR:
11-10-02 Foundation Scholar Uzziel was selected for a second scholarship by our organization's Board. We have provided second scholarships to a Scholar on just a handful of occasions during our 19 years. Uzziel is working at two part-time jobs while going to college. He has worked hard in school, too. His grades have consistently improved during his time as an undergraduate. His second scholarship was particularly meaningful because a portion of it was funded thanks to the effort of 11-10-02 Scholar Colby. Wanting to 'pay forward' the support we have given him and to replicate our efforts to teach students about philanthropy, Colby teamed up with a group of kids and raised money which helped fund Uzziel's second 11-10-02 Foundation Scholarship. As part of our efforts to connect dots for our Scholars, Uzziel also recently got to meet with one of our old Brunch Bunch mentors who works at Google. As a civil engineering student, Uzziel reports he was very excited to be there.

EAST COAST REUNION
A quartet of former 11-10-02 Foundation Scholars recently joined our founder, Greg Forbes Siegman, and some of his friends for dinner in Boston. It is nice to see 11-10-02 Foundation Scholars spending time together!
"PhD" STANDS FOR PROUDLY HELPING DOGS
While we are focused on education, we also love dogs. So, on multiple occasions, we have combined those interests by funding scholarships for students who meet our Criteria & Priorities and who also demonstrate a sincere commitment to caring for dogs and other animals in a humane way. In 2017, we funded another one of these scholarships. The recipient is a wonderful Ph.D. student named Kurinji. Despite the academic demands on her schedule, she has been a devoted volunteer for an extended period of time at an animal shelter.
PRIORITIES
There is no application process for our Scholarships. So, some people wonder what we look for. The answer can be found within our Priorities. To read them, click here. It is difficult to overstate how much our Priorities mean to us.
