Applications are now available for the 2016 DRI Foundation Scholarship — now open to both high school seniors and college undergrads in the U.S. and Canada!
“DRI is keenly aware of the costs involved in higher education. We are also mindful of the need for everyone to understand the need for preparedness; whether it is at the corporate, government or personal level,” says DRI President Al Berman. “Preparing communities to respond to adverse events is everyone’s responsibility. This is especially true for the next generations to come.”
The amount of each scholarship will be $5,000 and payment will be made in the form of a check awarded to the scholarship recipient.
Applications are due by April 29, 2016. A confirmation email will be sent within 48 hours of receipt. The winners will be announced on June 15, 2016.
In order to be eligible for the scholarship, the applicant or the applicant’s parent or legal guardian must be a DRI International Certified Professional in good standing and the applicant must be enrolled in a 4-year undergraduate program. The applicant must reside within the United States or Canada.
