SCHOLARSHIPS #69
College scholarships can help children get a head start in life. Most people don’t have money saved for college, and this way with scholarships you can help! If children can “earn’ their way with scholarship money they can graduate debt-free. 85% of colleges will give scholarships based on merit.
