Cindy -----Original Message----- From: Dawn Simon [mailto:dawns at weokie.org] Sent: Thursday, December 04, 2008 2:51 PM To: Richardson, Rebecca Subject: The WEOKIE Foundation is gearing up to give away $40,000 in scholarships to 2009 graduating seniors. I am looking for alternative ways to get the word out to schools and graduating seniors. I have attached our scholarship application and criteria. Students are required to write a short essay about the topic described. 25 scholarships will be awarded totaling $40,000. This is a great benefit to Oklahomans and I was hoping that you could assist me in listing this on the Oklahoma Higher Education website or help me contact the person that could spread the word about our scholarships. Sincerely, Dawn Simon Vice-President Marketing WEOKIE Credit Union 405.415.9082 405.415.9086 fax -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

The scholarship is limited to students that attend school in our Credit Union's field of Membership which includes the following counties in Oklahoma; Canadian, Cleveland, Logan, Pottawatomie and Oklahoma. I am very sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused. We are still very excited to offer these amounts! Since we are a non-profit Foundation, we are bound to adhere to the rules the IRS has set for us. The link to our website is www.weokie.org. The criteria is being ammended immediately. I have attached the amended document below.
