Hello!

 I am a TRIO Alum who graduated two years ago with my master's degree. While obtaining my bachelor's degree, I was a recipient of the Jeannette Rankin Foundation (JRF) Scholar Grant three years in a row, and I now work as the Scholar Support Specialist for JRF.

I wanted to share some information about the Jeannette Rankin Scholar grant in hopes that it will offer support to women you might work with:

 Jeannette Rankin Foundation offers unrestricted Scholar Grants to help ease the financial burden of going to college. We believe that our Scholars should have the agency to use the funds to best support their lives while pursuing an education.

• Our Scholar Grants are renewable for up to 5 years as long as the recipients still meet eligibility requirements. Our mission is to aid our Scholars in crossing the finish line in earning an education for themselves.
• Jeannette Rankin Foundation also offers live applicant support each Wednesday at 4:00pm Pacific, 7:00pm Eastern while our application season is open to eliminate any barriers in applying for our Scholar grant. We encourage anyone with questions to read over our eligibility criteria and email or call us with questions.

Please see the attached recruitment flyer with information, and feel free to share it out with your student populations, faculty, and community.

I am also available to answer any questions you might have about our Scholar Grants and organization if needed.

Yours in student advocacy,

Breezy Barcelo
