We’re pleased to announce that the Community Foundation for Palm Beach and Martin Counties 2011-2012 Scholarship Program is now accepting applications. The online application is on available on our website at http://www.yourcommunityfoundation.org/Scholarship-Center
The process is completely web-based, and the deadline for students to apply is February 1, 2012 at 5:00 p.m. Students who meet the primary eligibility will be invited for an interview. At that time, additional information will also be requested through the online system.
Thanks to the many individuals who have established scholarship funds, the Community Foundation manages over 100 scholarships and is one of the largest scholarship providers in Palm Beach and Martin Counties. You are encouraged to go to our website and familiarize yourself with our scholarship opportunities. Most scholarships are open only to high school seniors in Palm Beach & Martin Counties.
I wanted to bring your attention to one of our scholarships called the James H. Davis Memorial Scholarship. This is the criteria:
Graduating high school senior from any Palm Beach or Martin County high school. Also open to seniors from Homestead and South Dade High School in Dade County, FL. Must be majoring in horticulture, agriculture, forestry. Also open to students or adults returning to the field. Demonstrate financial need. Minimum 2.5 GPA while in college.
We hope that you’ll help us get the word out about our scholarship program by sharing this email with your friends, family, and others in the community who might be interested. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Pat Rowan, Fund Distributions Manager at prowan@cfpbmc.org”.
Thanks
Pat

Santa Paws is Coming To Town
Mark Your Calendar…Santa “Paws” Holiday Photos at
PetSmart Boynton Beach
335 North Congress Avenue
11 AM until 4 PM Saturdays and Sundays, December 3 and 4, December 10 and 11, December 17 and 18
Pets (and their people - yes, family members are welcome to pose in the photos too!) can have their picture taken with Santa. PetSmart welcomes any pet, as long as it is not a wild animal. We request that dogs be on lead, and cats, ferrets, birds, hamsters, etc. be in a carrier or contained.
This is a fun (and great) fundraiser for us, as PetSmart donates $5 from each $9.95 photo purchase (with your PetPerks Card) back to our rescued pets in the form of a charitable donation. We supply all the volunteers to staff the event, and PetSmart provides the location, Santa suit, materials, etc.
Come visit us and our adoptive pets, and have your pet's photo taken with Santa, for an adorable keepsake (holiday frame included!) and to support SAD*SAC’s orphaned cats and dogs...not to mention you get to tease the volunteers we bribe into dressing as Santa and the elves!
If you require accommodation for special needs, number of pets, etc., please email us at sadsacflorida@aol.com or call us at 561-736-1313 and we will try to set up a suitable appointment time.
We are also in need of volunteers for shifts for Santa, elves, photographer, computer help, etc…contact us at the mail and phone above if you can spare a few hours to save lives.
Please visit our website below to see our available cats and dogs or to make a small holiday donation for their medical and care... thank you from all the little furries!
