1) As a sibling or parent, you have experienced life with disabilities and most likely see the world differently than your peers. As you continue your formal education, what moment/person/idea helped inspire you to choose this path?
2) Based on your informal training at home as a special needs expert/advocate, how will you continue to spread the inclusion revolution?
3) How do you spend your time outside of the classroom? (i.e. work, extra-curricular activities, volunteer experience.) What are your secret or well-known talents? (i.e. sports, bird watching, sax player, baker, coder, jewelry maker, or magazine squeaking aka Bridgey’s favorite pastime, etc.)
4) Tell us about your involvement with AHF. Have you participated or volunteered at AHF events? If so, would you share a favorite memory?
5*) Having a brother, sister, or child with a serious illness greatly impacts the whole family. AHF’s strives to help families improve their quality of life by hosting fun events that are inclusive of siblings and parents. As the 100% volunteer run organization continues to grow so does the need for more manpower and fundraising. Do you have any suggestions for AHF? (in terms of family event ideas, increasing volunteer participation, fundraising, sibling involvement, etc) *NOTE: This question is optional nor does it count towards scholarship evaluation.
