Dear Editor,
The Alan Green Memorial Foundation (AGMF) is a non-profit organization in Gilpin County. It was founded in 1983 by family and friends of Alan Green. Alan’s parents were Ken and Lela Green who lived in Gilpin County. Ken and Lela lost their only son Alan and his wife Judy in a commercial plane crash. The foundation was formed in Alan’s name and continues to support members of the Gilpin County community in many ways. Over $275,000 in scholarships have been awarded to students in the past years. We are happy to announce that a new set of awards will be given this year.
Continuing Education Scholarships
The AGMF is now accepting scholarship applications from any Gilpin County student who is continuing their post secondary education. To be eligible for a scholarship, the student MUST BE A RESIDENT OF GILPIN COUNTY and enrolled in some type of continuing education.
Applications are accepted for ALL types of post secondary education including attending trade school, certificate programs, university, or college. The scholarship amount will be determined by the number of scholarships that will be dispersed and will be decided by the AGMF board members. The applicant’s response to questions for the personal letter is considered more important than the GPA or class standing. In addition to the application, we will need you to submit the following:
ONE page personal letter that includes the following:
What subjects are you studying and why?
How have you prepared for college?
What do you hope to accomplish after college?
An Official Transcript from your college/trade school, certificate program, or university. (With Application or Sent by College)
Copy of schedule or letter of acceptance if transferring.
SUBMITTING AN APPLICATION: (ALL DOCUMENTS MUST BE SUBMITTED AS PDF) Applications MUST be received by June 30th. No late applications will be considered.
