National Student-Athlete Day Scholarships Available

March 26, 2020 / Our Nighthawks

For the last 33 years, the Institute for Sport & Social Justice has celebrated National Student-Athlete Day, April 6 to honor high school and college student-athletes who have excelled in the classroom and in competition.
 
Since 1987, over four million student-athletes have been honored with National Student-Athlete Day certificates. All student-athletes must have earned a 3.0 GPA or better and involved in outreach and community service.
 
At the annual Giant Steps Awards, the Institute for Sport & Social Justice gives a $500 scholarship to a male and a female student-athlete.  
 
Applicants must have demonstrated courage, heroism, triumph in the midst of adversity, community activism through the power of sport and broken-down barriers for those who would otherwise not have had opportunities.
 
Please visit the Giant Steps Forward website to apply for the scholarship.
 
The new extended application deadline for the scholarship is April 3.
