D.A.S.H. Grant Program
FOR GRADUATING SENIORS
In June of 2020, we introduced the D.A.S.H (Diamant’s Accepted Senior Honoree) Grant. The purpose of this grant is to support eligible upcoming freshmen with the costs associated with college supplies and/or tuition. The requirements to enter were to submit a 500 page essay on why they should win the scholarship and their acceptance letter to a college or university OR proof of entrance into the armed forces. Several eligible seniors applied and only one was chosen to received the $500 grant (along with a gift card for supplies). See below for recipient information and presentation.
We will provide this scholarship each year and hope to be able to award larger grant amounts and open this up to more awardees. Help us reach this goal by donating to the D.A.S.H scholarship fund. We appreciate your support!
