Dear Scholarship Applicant,
Greetings and Praise the Lord! Proverbs 23:23 states, “Buy the truth, and sell it not; also wisdom, and instruction, and understanding.” In this passage King Solomon expresses the value of education, training, and experience. As well, we are aware of the tremendous value and ever increasing cost of a quality education for our youth. With this in mind, the NYFC is please to announce the 2011 Memorial Scholarship. We are also delighted to announce that we will be awarding at least two $1000 scholarships this year during our 57th Annual NYFC Convention in Hampton, Virginia.
The NYFC Memorial Scholarship is designed to honor those who sacrificed and labored for the national body over the years, and have passed on to be with the Lord, by providing college scholarships in their memory to the future leaders of our organization. Although we can never pay these remarkable men and women of God for their works, through this scholarship program the National Youth for Christ will try to honor them and their legacy.
To be eligible to apply for the NYFC Memorial Scholarship one must be a freshman or community college transfer student entering a 4-year college/university in Fall 2011; have a minimum 3.0 high school GPA; be accepted and enrolled in a 4-year college/university for Fall 2011; be baptized according to Acts 2:38; and be a member in good standing with a Way of the Cross Church. Candidates will be evaluated on their high school GPA; class rank; SAT scores; school and community activities; local and national church involvement; awards and leadership positions; essays; and recommendation letters.
Complete scholarship applications should be mailed to:
NYFC Memorial Scholarship
C/O Sis. Sonjia Davis, Chair
1320 Delafield Pl NW
Washington, D.C. 20011
All scholarship applications must be received by Monday, June 27, 2011. Incomplete or late scholarship applications will not be considered. If you have any questions about the scholarship program or the scholarship application, please contact our second vice president, District Elder Eric Cannady by clicking here. The winner will be announced during our annual academic recognition service on Wednesday, July 27, 2011 at 9:00 a.m.
Yours in Christ,
Elder Travell

Dear Pastors and YFC Presidents,
Hebrews 6:10 states, “For God is not unrighteous to forget your work and labor of love, which ye have shewed toward his name, in that ye have ministered to the saints, and do minister.” With this in mind, in 2005 the NYFC Executive Board established the National Youth for Christ Memorial Scholarship.
This scholarship program is designed to honor those who sacrificed and labored for the national body over the years, and have passed on to be with the Lord, by providing college scholarships in their memory to the future leaders of our organization. Although we can never pay these remarkable men and women of God for their works, through this scholarship program the National Youth for Christ will try to honor them and their legacy.
As well, NYFC understand the increasing importance and rising costs of a higher education. Thus, the National Youth for Christ will be looking to award annually at least one $1,000 memorial scholarship to an outstanding youth. This year we are happy to announce that we will be awarding at least two scholarships.
To be eligible to apply for the NYFC Memorial Scholarship one must be a freshman entering a 4-year college/university in Fall 2011; have a minimum 3.0 high school GPA; be accepted and enrolled in a 4-year college/university for Fall 2011; be baptized according to Acts 2:38; and be a member in good standing with a Way of the Cross Church.
Candidates will be evaluated on their high school GPA; final class rank; SAT scores; school and community activities; local and national church involvement; awards and leadership positions; essays and recommendation letters.
Enclosed you should find one copy of the application for the 2011. Your youth can also download a copy of the scholarship application clicking here. The deadline to submit scholarship applications is Monday, June 27, 2011. Scholarships will be awarded during our annual academic recognition service on Wednesday, July 27 at 9:00 a.m.
In closing, we are also asking that individuals, families and churches make a financial contribution to the scholarship fund. Our desire is to increase the amount and number of scholarships awarded each year. Enclosed is a form outlining the various levels of support; please consider helping the NYFC provide additional scholarships for the youth of the WOTCC.
Yours in Christ,
Elder Travell Travis, Esq.
