Better Business Bureau (BBB) Foundation serving Nebraska, South Dakota, The Kansas Plains and Southwest Iowa is notifying you that it is accepting applications from high school seniors for the 2015 Scott Mecham BBB Student of Integrity Awards. Eight students will each be granted $2,000 college scholarships: two from metro Omaha and southwest Iowa, two from South Dakota, two from metro Lincoln and greater Nebraska and two from The Kansas Plains area.
These scholarships are not based on ethnicity, need or grade point average, but recognize students of integrity who represent BBB values. They are awarded to students who exemplify ethical behavior and personal integrity and who demonstrate humility, courage, compassion and respect for their peers, teachers and community.
Please share this information with students who you know would be candidates for these special awards. Aside from the obvious benefit to the students, this is also a wonderful opportunity for your institution to be publicly recognized. Scholarship winners will be announced in April and congratulated in releases to television, radio and print media. They will also be recognized at the BBB’s Integrity Award Events in August.
The application guide with full details and required forms can be downloaded at http://bbb.org/h/mqf.
For more information, please contact BBB Communications Director Margo Riekes at 402-898-8526, 800-649-6814 #8526 or mriekes@bbbinc.org. The BBB and its Foundation looks forward to rewarding two well-deserving students from metro Omaha and southwest Iowa for upholding high ethical standards. Applications must be postmarked by Friday, March 6, 2015.
