BEAN Young Professional Scholarship – a $2,500 scholarship exclusively for Rainier Beach, Cleveland and Chief Sealth High School students!
Who We Are:
BEAN is created with the goal of fostering lasting professional and personal connections between people of diverse backgrounds while contributing to the community in large through volunteering and social work. We believe that a professional organization should do more than foster business connections. It should draw together exceptional individuals with business strong aspirations but also are keenly aware of the social responsibilities that come with financial and professional success. We believe that by combining exceptional people with exceptional goals, we can achieve exceptional results.
The three cornerstones of BEAN are leadership, friendship, and service, and all services provided by BEAN will strive to fulfill these three noble sentiments.
What We’re Looking For:
BEAN would like to award a 1-year $2,500 scholarship (to be paid in quarterly/semester installments) to one student from Rainier Beach, Cleveland or Chief Sealth high schools who most closely exhibits the three cornerstones that the organization was founded upon. The recipient of the scholarship must attend a 2-year or 4-year accredited institution in the state of Washington for the 2008-2009 school year. The top candidates for this scholarship may be subject to an in-person and/or phone interview.
