I understand that in order to be eligible for a scholarship award:
• I am not eligible for a scholarship offered by the Southern California United Food and Commercial Workers Union and Food Employers Ancillary Benefit Fund.
• Membership on which my eligibility is based must remain in continuous good standing through April 30, 2025. This means the member cannot be suspended, take a withdrawal, or transfer to another local prior to April 30, 2025.
• Applicants must be at least seniors in high school.
• I am not eligible to apply if I previously received scholarship award money from UFCW Local 1167.
• If my address, telephone number, or place of work changes, it is my responsibility to inform the local union so that I can receive information in a timely manner.
• If the member is involuntarily laid off or transferred out of UFCW Local 1167, I will become ineligible and will notify the local union.
• Finalists will be notified by mail. If I am notified that I qualify as a finalist, I will submit required information and will participate in an interview if invited to do so.7. Awards will be made to undergraduate or graduate applicants at the sole discretion of the local’s Scholarship Committee.
• All decisions of the Scholarship Committee are final.
