- How will you benefit from the scholarship?
Each essay must be unique to the scholarship that you are applying for.

Submitting your resume is required and is an opportunity to highlight any accomplishments that make you an ideal donor scholarship recipient. Your resume should reflect all applicable work history, research experience, community service, leadership experience, and awards.
