Scholarship Opportunities

Recently, students in the personal finance classes reviewed the high costs of college and were introduced to various forms of financial aid.  As I searched for classroom resources to assist students as they seek financial support for college, I stumbled upon Zinch, a web-service that matches students with scholarship opportunities.

After further research, students who sign up by visiting Zinch will instantly generate $1.00 for the DHS FBLA.  Please feel free to sign up for the scholarship matching service and feel good about helping out a club at Donegal.

We sincerely thank you!
