Robbie Engelmann Memorial Scholarship
Do you know a young woman seeking academic support and mentoring?
In honor of Robbie Engelmann, a beloved mother, gifted therapist, teacher, and advocate of the underserved, the Tutor Corps Foundation awards scholarships to provide a year of complementary tutoring for lower income young women.
Robbie cared deeply about creating opportunities for young women. The Robbie Engelmann Memorial Scholarship funds one-on-one tutoring for five students for the academic year. The scholarship recipients will meet once a week with a tutor to receive consistent academic support along with mentoring to build confidence and self-esteem.
Applicants must be female students, live in the San Francisco Bay Area, currently be in 6th through 12th grade, demonstrate a financial need for tutoring and be recommended by a teacher and parent. We are currently accepting applications for the 2011-2012 academic year, with an application deadline of October 1st, 2011. Applicants will be notified of awards by November 1st, 2011.
