The Colleen Scarisbrick Help America Hear Scholarship is dedicated to empowering students with hearing loss by providing both financial support and advanced hearing technology to help them succeed. This year, ten deserving students will receive a financial award to support their college or vocational education, and a pair of top-of-the-line ReSound prescription hearing aids, custom-fitted to their specific hearing needs. Applicants must be high school seniors who have a hearing loss, which requires the use of hearing aids or Cochlear Implants in their daily life. The purpose of this scholarship is to help students with hearing loss reach their full potential by giving them a financial boost and the gift of sound. This will further allow the students to build confidence and self-esteem as they prepare for college or vocational school. Applicants must submit two letters of reference, one must be from a teacher, a guidance counselor, coach etc., and one must be from an individual outside of the applicant's school and family. A signed photo release and a signed HIPAA form by a parent/legal guardian must be submitted if the student is a minor. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information.
