SCHOLARSHIP FUND
The SWEETIE PIE ANGELS Scholarship Fund (SPAF) was created on the belief that any motivated individual in need should have the opportunity to further his or her education. By removing some of the financial burdens associated with going to, surviving in, school, the SPAF plays a vital role in increasing college access and success for many motivated yet underserved youth and young adults. The SPAF provides individual grants, paid directly to the educational institution, to every student who qualifies and reapplies yearly, from admission to graduation. The grant can be used to cover many school expenses such as books, lab fees, travel and select costs of living. All SPA Scholars are asked to “give back” by conducting community service and by serving as mentors to younger, aspiring SPA Scholars.
