The Hellenic Times Scholarship Fund has awarded
over $2 million in scholarships to over 800 students from across
the United States. The sole fundraiser for the organization
is its annual Awards Gala in May. The funds for the
Scholarships awarded are principally raised through
our journal, raffle and the generosity of members of the
community and corporations who purchase tables and
make donations. Every cent raised after event expenses
and operating expenses goes directly to scholarships
for the education of our students. Only 6 cents out
of every dollar raised goes towards HTSF operating
expenses, which include: telephone, website maintenance,
office supplies, tax preparation, and application
processing. The Fund does not employ any full-time
employees and relies principally on the generosity of its
committee volunteers for all aspects of running the
organization, including but not limited to event planning,
scholarship evaluation, fundraising, type-setting and art
design. Through your unwavering support, we look forward
to continue educating Greek America. |
