Each year the fund awards nearly $70,000 in scholarships to New England students. Awards of two and four years are granted up to a maximum of $2,500 annually. Students must be residents of New England. Applicants may be high school seniors, recent high school graduates, or current students enrolled in an accredited college or university that offers a certificate or degree related to graphic communications. If the major selected is not graphic communications-related, the student must explain how the major will prepare them for a career in the graphic communications industry.
