DoSomething.org and Foot Locker are partnering up to give out twenty $20,000 scholarships
to athletes that have shown leadership both on and off the field. These twenty incoming
college freshmen will receive funding for college - not because they scored the most
touchdowns, but for their character and commitment to volunteerism.
This is the award for flexing heart, not muscle.

If you are a student attending a UNCF member college or university, it is highly recommended that you also complete this UNCF GENERAL SCHOLARSHIP application. This application process nominates a UNCF student searching for scholarship assistance. Once a student completes the application, the information will be used to match you to many of the specific programs administered by UNCF for the 2011/12 Academic Year. The General application, however, does not apply to scholarship programs that require a separate application. To be considered for other scholarships through the Apply Online process, you must complete the online application for that scholarship.
