Who is eligible for scholarships?
All SNR participants, no matter their age, sex, housing situation, or race, are eligible for SNR Scholarships. Scholarships are not guaranteed but we do our best to disperse available funds to those in need.
What do the scholarships cover?
Summer Kids Camp All Stars: The scholarship covers up to $30 a day for camp. Depending on available funds, 25-100% may be awarded. Participants are responsible for activity/field trip fees.
Evening Group: Scholarships will be applied to a monthly billing. The cost to attend the Evening Group varies and is noted at each event. Participants are responsible for activity fees (dinner, movie, bowling, etc.)
Adult LIFE Group: Scholarships will be applied to monthly billing. Daily attendance is $12. Participants are still responsible for activity fees (bowling, lunch, movie, crafts, etc.)

What do I need to fill out to fill out a scholarship application?
Participants must have an updated registration form to be considered for scholarships. Otherwise, applications will be denied.
We encourage participants to be involved in the application process when appropriate.
Please make sure to fill out the LMI section of your registration paperwork. This helps us calculate the total scholarship dollars awarded.
How are scholarships determined?
SNR has a Scholarship Committee of community members and business professionals to determine scholarship eligibility, maintain fairness, and make unbiased decisions.
What can cause an application to be denied?
While we do not want to turn anyone away, some things can cause an application to be automatically denied. These things include late or unfinished application submittal, no updated registration on file, or an unpaid balance on their account.
Are there requirements to keep and maintain my scholarship?
Yes. All scholarship recipients must be in good standing with our Code of Conduct. Infractions of the Code of Conduct may result in loss of scholarship funds.
Is there a way to apply for a partial scholarship?
Yes. Applicants can choose if they would like 25%, 50%, or 100% of the allocated scholarship amount.
Do I need to fill out a different application twice a year?
Yes. SNR requires a new application to be submitted biannually.
Do I need to fill out an application for each scholarship if I am applying for multiple scholarships?
Yes. You are welcome to apply for any scholarship during the desired open window.
Will I receive cash based on scholarship approval?
No, scholarship funds will be deducted as invoices are completed each month.
How will I know if I receive a scholarship?
We will email the participant’s payee informing them of the acceptance and what percentage of the scholarship will be awarded 30 days after the application window closes. Therefore, we require the payee email on the Scholarship Application.
What if I would like to request a scholarship, and the windows open are not relevant to the program I’m requesting?
If you would like to request scholarship support outside of the window, please contact the executive director. We will do our best to find a solution.
