Parker and Connor's Education Goals

Hello, my name is Karen and I am Parker and Connor's Mom. Both of my children were recipients of the Teamwork USA Scholarship in Palm Beach County, Florida. It was a scholarship they earned based on academic achievement, community service, and financial need. Connor received a scholarship for three years and Teamwork refused to allow his fourth year of eligibility to be used for graduate school since he was able to graduate early. Parker is going into her senior year at FSU, and after she applied for the renewal scholarship in January as she had done the past two years, she was told they were not offering renewable scholarships this year. She was completely blindsided and is scrambling to find the funds to complete her senior year. Teamwork decided in October 2022 at a board meeting they were no longer offering the renewable scholarship to students, but failed to notify the students eligible for renewal. Instead, they chose to focus their scholarships on first time college freshmen.

We know God provides and are determined to raise the funds for Parker to complete her senior year at FSU and for Connor to have his final year of scholarship eligibility be used for graduate school.

This article was on the front page of the Palm Beach Post today, explaining more about this blindsiding decision made by the scholarship foundation. https://www.palmbeachpost.com/story/news/education/2023/03/30/teamwork-usa-ends-scholarship-renewal-for-palm-beach-county-students/70052166007/
