Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation Awards $5 Million in Scholarships to 2011-2012 Academic Class

Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation Awards $ 5 Million in Scholarships to 2011-2012 Academic Class

Washington, DC (PRWEB) September 13, 2011

On September 13th, at its 2011 Scholarship Announcement Ceremony and Reception, the Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation will recognize more than 1,600 scholarship recipients and their Marine families – who are being awarded nearly $ 5 million for their higher education from the Foundation for this academic year.

The ceremony, which will be hosted by Gen Robert Magnus USMC (Ret), Chairman of the Board of Directors for the Foundation and Margaret B. Davis, President and CEO of the Foundation, and feature a keynote speech by Gen James F. Amos, 35th Commandant of the Marine Corps, comes as the Foundation prepares to celebrate its 50th anniversary year. During that time, the organization has provided over 26,500 scholarships valued at more than $ 65 milion.

23 student recipients will attend the ceremony. This year’s scholarship recipients represent all 50 states, and include children of Marines killed in action or wounded in combat. The Foundation provides needs-based scholarships to children whose parent has served in the Corps.

“We celebrate the achievements of our remarkable 2011-2012 class of students at this event,” said Davis. “As we reach our 50th year, we reflect on the life-changing opportunities that we’ve made possible for families of those who spend their lives protecting ours, and we look towards a future of continuing to honor Marines by educating their children.”

Over the past year, the Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation has raised nearly $ 15 million in scholarship contributions. At the Reception, two major announcements will be highlighted. The first is from Marine philanthropist Chuck Scianna, who is making a $ 2.5 million commitment to the Foundation. “When you invest in the Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation, you are not just giving money, you are investing in a young person’s dream,” noted Scianna. His donation is the largest amount received from an individual donor.

The second major commitment that will be highlighted is the Sergeant Dakota Meyer Scholarship Initiative, named after upcoming Medal of Honor recipient, Sgt. Dakota Meyer USMC. Sgt. Meyer will be in attendance to announce his commitment to raise $ 1 million by the Foundation’s 50th anniversary on May 28, 2012. He will also “Challenge America” to match his efforts by raising an additional $ 1 million.

“The Corps teaches us to keep faith with our fellow Marines and their families. This initiative does just that by helping to provide an education to children of Marines and to assist each of them in achieving their goals,” said Meyer, who will receive his medal on September 15, 2011, two days after the scholarship event. “Education paves the path to our future and I’m honored to lead this initiative working with the Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation. I hope, and challenge, all Americans to join me in this mission and support our Marine families.”

Additional presenters at the event include a representative from the U.S. Department of Education and SgtMaj Micheal Barrett, Sergeant Major of the Marine Corps. In addition, distinguished representatives from generous Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation donors such as Lockheed Martin, Toyota and BAE Systems are expected to attend the event to celebrate the scholars.

ABOUT THE MARINE CORPS SCHOLARSHIP FOUNDATION: The Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation is the nation’s oldest and largest provider of need-based scholarships to U.S. military families. Since 1962, the Foundation has provided more than 26,500 scholarships valued at over $ 65,000,000 to Marine Corps sons and daughters whose parents have been killed or wounded in combat or have demonstrated financial need. For the 2011-2012 academic year, the Foundation will provide more than 1,600 scholarships totaling nearly $ 5,000,000. The Foundation is proud to have been named by Independent Charities of America as ‘Best in America’ for demonstrating “the highest standards of public accountability, program effectiveness, and cost effectiveness.”For more information on the Marine Corps Scholarship Foundation please visit http://www.mcsf.org.

Payday Loan Refund Checks: FTC Returns Almost $2 Million to Payday Loan Applicants Who Were Tricked into Buying Prepaid Debit Cards

The Federal Trade Commission is mailing more than 110,000 refund checks to consumers defrauded by an online operation that tricked payday loan applicants into paying for an unrelated debit card. The FTC alleged that payday loan marketers Matthew Patterson, Mark Benning, Jason Strober, and Swish Marketing, Inc., worked with debit card marketers Jerry Klein, Joshua Finer, and VirtualWorks, LLC, to design the deceptive payday loan application form that triggered a charge of up to $ 54.95 for a prepaid debit card with a zero balance.

Government small business loans from below $50,000 to over $3 million

Government small business loans have come as a big boon to entrepreneurs wanting to kick start small business ventures. And small businesses have been contributing to the growth of the US economy in a large way. The impact is being felt even more now after the worst recession hit us a couple of years ago. There is scope for almost every type of a business venture for which startup loans are required.

Loans for any small business under the sun

And loans are available for small businesses ranging from painting, consulting, pet supplies to running dance studios, appliance repairs, beauty salons and real estate. Even in these tough times, you can avail of government small business loans to kick start the venture of your interest if you are confident of generating profits in the long run. If you have a small business idea ticking in your head, your best bet would be to look for government aid.

The scenario of government loans for aiding small businesses coast to coast is very bright. According to data available from the IRS and the SBA or Small Business Administration, nearly 26 million or more small businesses were in operation during 2002 and they helped create 75 percent of new jobs in the past few years. Small businesses are integral to the growth of the US economy and to facilitate more of them, loans for startups have been made more liberal.

]]>

Government small business loans are surging on the back of increased demand from first time as well as small entrepreneurs because they are unable to secure finances from traditional sources. After the economic blowback, traditional lending sources like banks and venture capital fund managers are wary of parking their money. It is getting increasingly difficult for them to get money other than loans provided on easy terms by the government.

SBA is doing great service

Government small business loans are being handled by the Small Business Administration for decades and they have been doing great service to the American economy. It was in the year 2003 that the SBA announced an enhanced package for small businesses by hiking loan availability by .4 billion.

Over the past 50 years since SBA has been doing yeomen service to US small businesses, they have pumped in over billion into more than 20 million businesses coast to coast. And they are flexible since you can get ready funds sanctioned within weeks if you are in dire need of money to start up soon or require immediate capital inflow to maintain operations.

The government small business loans are not one-size-fits-all type as they can vary from as little as less than ,000 and can also be over million depending on the requirement of startups. Your best bet would be to get a survey done about your business plans which you can weigh against comparative analysis for similar companies.

Small Business Resource announces new government grant specifically for training as distinct from grants for startups and grants for business development.

Applicants must be an established small business or a start up ready to get going. Grant applications can be found at small business resource, Ideas and Financing web site: http://www.2-small-business.com

Explains David Davis, CEO for Small Business Resource, “the major drawback for small businesses in 2007 will be finding cash to finance training and given that 35% of small businesses in the UK agree that training on market research and technology is vital for moving ahead in 2007, support in this area will be a much welcome New Year tonic.”

Small Business Resource provides information of government grant providers including comprehensive small business grant information as published by the minister responsible for overseeing grants. Full information is found at: http://www.2-small-business.com/small_business_resources.shtml and http://www.2-small-business.com/small_business_grant.shtml.

Explains David Davis, “I’ve worked over Christmas to have the grant application form in place and ready for 2nd January 2007, when business restarts following the Christmas break. There’s a £4 million fund and I’ve arranged for my clients and other small to mid size businesses to apply for a share. It will be on a first come fist serve basis.”
