CWA President Bahr Announces 2005-06 Scholarship Competition Now Open

Dear CWA Members & Family,

We’re ready, once again, to kick off the CWA Joe Beirne Foundation’s annual scholarship offerings for the 2005-2006 school year.

The Foundation’s Board of Directors has approved the awarding of thirty (30) partial college scholarships of up to $3,000 each, and the winners also will receive second-year scholarships for the same amount, contingent upon satisfactory academic achievement.

Eligible for the scholarships are CWA members and their spouses, children and grandchildren, including the dependents of retired, laid-off or deceased members. Applicants must be high school graduates or high school students who will graduate during the year in which they apply. Undergraduate and graduate students returning to school may also apply.

Applications will be made solely online by filling out and submitting an application form at the Foundation’s website: www.cwa-union.org/members/beirne/application.asp.Applications will be accepted between November 2004 and March 31, 2005 – the final deadline. The winners will be chosen by lottery drawing. Further information about the program can be found at the website: www.cwa-union.org/members/beirne.

This valuable scholarship program is made possible by the funding CWA locals.

In Unity,

Morton Bahr
President
