Becker Dollars for Scholars® is sponsoring the 35th annual Phone-A-Thon for scholarships.
The Phone-A-Thon will be held on the evenings of Feb. 27 and March 4 with March 13 or a day during the week of March 17 as alternate dates if needed because of weather or conflicts with other activities.
Volunteer students will call Becker School district residents to take pledges. Larger donations from individuals, businesses, and organizations are also accepted. All money raised is awarded to Becker High School students.
Scholarships of $500.00 (or more) are available to graduating high school seniors planning to attend public or private colleges or technical colleges and to those who are already attending college or technical college. The Becker community has contributed over $646,000 to over 1275 scholarships over the past 34 years.
Becker Dollars for Scholars has a website through Scholarship America and all student applications will need to be completed by logging on to the website becker.dollarsforscholars.org and click on the “Students and Parents” tab and follow the instructions there.
