We are interested in building extended communities for NOLS around the country. We hope to establish long-term relationships with our NOLS alumni by involving them in various initiatives like the scholarship program. Sharing the NOLS experience with a wider and more diverse audience is part of our mission. Here's how you can help. There is no limit to size and no set expectation on the size of the financial commitment.
Active participation is the key.
Every project needs a name, list serves, pledge forms, etc. These will evolve as the committees grow. Committee members will work closely with Lander on selection of these schools. The working model suggests raising a minimum of two scholarships. Committee members will be asked to help in a pre-screening of applications by doing personal interviews and ranking applications on student merit.
