    Arizona Community Foundation of Yavapai County and Arizona Community Foundation of Sedona Invite Scholarship Providers to Present Opportunities to Local Students

    logo_arizonacommunityfoundationSedona AZ (October 5, 2018) – The Arizona Community Foundation of Yavapai County and Arizona Community Foundation of Sedona welcome local community groups to participate in annual Cash for College Scholarship Awareness Nights. Sponsored by Yavapai College, each of the two events will provide opportunities for area students, families and local educators to learn more about the many post-secondary scholarships that are available for both traditional and non-traditional college students. The deadline to register as a scholarship provider for this event is Wednesday, October 31, 2018.

    Following the success of the last year’s event, in which scholarship providers met with over 300 interested students, ACF of Yavapai County and ACF of Sedona are excited to offer two evening events again this year, one in Prescott and one in Clarkdale. Last year, Yavapai County students received over $140,000 in scholarship funding from ACF’s scholarship program.

    Recent declines in scholarship applications across the nation can be attributed to a lack of awareness from students and parents. For the third year in a row, ACF of Yavapai County is partnering with ACF of Sedona to help increase awareness and provide an opportunity for the community to form a collective response. The two evening events will connect Yavapai County students directly with scholarship providers.

    At both events, each scholarship provider will have an opportunity to present application requirements and other important information to interested students at their own booth to increase awareness and community engagement. An informational document that includes a brief description of all represented opportunities will be distributed during the events to give students and parents a reference guide cataloguing the available scholarships.

    A variety of scholarship funds established with the Arizona Community Foundation offer support for students in Yavapai County. With one application, students are matched with more than 100 scholarships for which they qualify through ACF’s online scholarship system. ACF of Yavapai County and ACF of Sedona are affiliates of the Arizona Community Foundation, the largest private provider of scholarships in the state. Collaboration is one of ACF’s guiding principles, and as such, we would like this event to include representation from all of the wonderful organizations that provide scholarship opportunities to local students.

    Words of Love
    By Tommy Acosta

    There is a movement happening in the A.I. universe that few are talking about but soon almost everyone that uses it, will. People are moving beyond using their A.I. as tools for research, writing, editing, etc. and are now beginning to use their A.I.s for other things, like advice, conversation and even counseling.
