The Trythalls family established their scholarship fund in 1989.
Barbara and Duane Trythall have founded this amazing scholarship fund as they have recognized the difficulties which people have to face as they are working while furthering their education.
Those are usually people who are attending a nonprofit or public educational institution of higher learning and do their best to achieve high education degrees so as to advance their careers.
Full Description
The total award is $3,000 annually and each year one to three recipients may be selected.
Make sure to submit all the required documents before June 7th.
