An Outreach Scholarship for Youth Groups

Since this blog is already a hodge podge of how to make play-dough or a ghetto slip-n-slide, why not add in how to get free money for your youth group?

It's not a gimmick.

It's legit.

And you can read about it all here.

Mission: Possible! is a scholarship program offered by Kurt Warner's First Things First Foundation, and it is specifically for youth / college groups who are interested in doing an outreach or missions trip within the United States. Awards of up to $1,000 are given to 50 groups per year, but you must apply by February 1, 2010.

In previous years, at least two youth groups have received scholarships to come to Aim Right to assist us with our summer VBS. They were blessed, and we were blessed.

There is another opportunity for blessing if you know of a youth group seeking an outreach venue for next summer. Our first week of VBS (June 28 -July 2, 2010) is still available, and I'm sure that with a bit of advance planning, securing a First Things First scholarship is highly likely.
