- Purpose
- The Scott-Free Scholarship is need based and pairs at risk children with camps or programs that offer sports, technology, theater, music, arts, and education. Each summer, the recipients will receive full or partial scholarships that enable them to explore and discover the extent of their talents and abilities.
- How Campers are Selected
- Teachers, principals, and counselors from participating North Carolina elementary and middle schools recommend children and submit applications according to specific criteria. Scott-Free focuses on North Carolina children that exhibit a strong work ethic and positive attitude, and without help and support, attending camp would create a financial hardship for their family.
- Financial Support and Participation
- Scott-Free operates entirely on tax-deductible donations from businesses, private individuals, and partnerships with North Carolina camps. In addition, Scott-Free will hold a charitable fundraiser event each year in the Raleigh area to invite donors and celebrate progress.
