The Pat Tillman Foundation invites you and/or your constituents to apply to become a Tillman Military Scholar. The Pat Tillman Foundation is dedicated to supporting educational opportunities for veterans, servicemembers and their families. Veteran and active servicemembers and their dependents (children and spouses) portray the very nature of leadership that the Foundation seeks to inspire in young people across the country.
Please find a link below to the Tillman Military Scholars application. This link and additional information (FAQs, etc.) can be found under the “Tillman Military Scholars” section of the Pat Tillman Foundation website – www.pattillmanfoundation.org/tillman-military-scholars.aspx.

Now in its second year, the Tillman Military Scholars program supports educational opportunities for active and veteran servicemembers and their families by covering direct study-related expenses such as tuition, fees, books, room and board, and other needs, such as child care. In 2009, the Pat Tillman Foundation awarded $642,000 to 52 Tillman Military Scholars to men and women at 21 universities in 16 states for the 2009/2010 academic year. With these scholarships, we ensure these leaders have every opportunity to pursue broader educational goals.
Please forward this to your respective contacts and/or post it on any website where potential applicants may find it. The 2010/2011 application opens Monday, March 15, 2010 and is due by 5:00 p.m. EST on Friday, April 30, 2010. If you or your contacts have any questions, please email [email protected].
