Dear Friend/Business Owner:
The rate of college drop outs is steadily increasing. As well, the population of students entering into higher learning institutions is decreasing. One of the reasons our community is faced with this dilemma, often is due to lack of funding for those desiring to start and successfully complete their educational goals.
The Robert Covington College Scholarship Fund Inc., is a not-for-profit incorporation that provides financial awards to qualified United States Residents who are graduating from high school and entering college or adult learners who are in pursuit of higher education. The late Reverend Robert Covington was a Clergyman in Westchester County for well over 25 years. During his tenure he provided a variety of assistance to individuals throughout the Tri-State Area and the Continental US. Amongst many of his triumphs, he supported higher learning and encouraged those he came in contact with to pursue attending and completing college. Due to the persistence of his encouragement there are numerous individuals that attribute their educational achievements to his inspiration. The Robert Covington College Scholarship was established in 2012. Since its inception we have had the pleasure of providing financial support to each of the qualifying award recipients. It is our sincere goal to continue to be able to provide financial aid to various applicants. Without donations like yours, the College Fund will not have enough treasuries to continue to operate. We are proud to share that over the past few years, with the support of various sponsors, family and friends, we have distributed over $25,000.00. This year, we are hoping to raise $50,000.00.
By doing so, we will be able to continue our goals of financially supporting higher education to qualified award recipients.
Our events and efforts draw supporters from within the Continental US. By partnering with our efforts you will further inform the community of your business and/or personal philanthropy. Please help make a difference by contributing to the success of this superb goal that supports academia. Your donations will be acknowledged and announced through our web cite. Additionally, all donations are tax exempt. Our Federal TIN 81-5212105. If you have questions, please call Mrs. Kim Johnson, Board of Directors Secretary 203-615-1200.
Thank you in advance for your support.
Sincerely Appreciated,
Mrs. Sylvia Covington,
