SCHOLARSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
David Jonathan Jose Foundation $1000 college scholarship, available to seniors graduating from any Massachusetts High School pursuing higher education in the visual or preforming arts or any subset of the arts.
The DJJ Foundation was formed in 2013 after we lost a talented and courageous young man to cancer at the age of 26. A thespian, David was a talented singer, dancer, and actor. His limitless potential could have taken him anywhere. The goal of our foundation is to continue his legacy, which we are doing by providing students with the educational opportunities to explore their own potential.
In that spirit, we have made our eligibility requirements as inclusive as possible to increase the potential of our talented young people. There is no minimum GPA requirement and unlike many other scholarships we do not limit applicants to U.S. citizens.
This scholarship can be applied to many facets of the student’s college education: tuition, art supplies, books, housing or other cost of living expenses.
Applications for this scholarship can be found on our website, www.djjfund.org. We have also attached the application and a poster within this email. If you have any questions, please feel free to email us at djjscholarship@gmail.com.
