Description:
The Families of Freedom Scholarship Fund® benefits financially
needy dependent children, spouses, and domestic partners of 9/11
victims, including airplane crew and passengers; World Trade Center
and Pentagon workers and visitors; and relief workers, including
firefighters, emergency medical personnel, and law enforcement
personnel, that were involved in the rescue efforts.
Families of Freedom Scholarships are available for children, including
those born after September 11, 2001, who enroll in a program of
post-secondary study by age 24. Those children who turn 24 during
their course of study must then continue their program of study
uninterrupted, with the exception of summer vacations, in order to
continue receiving scholarship assistance. Spouses and domestic
partners may apply for Families of Freedom scholarships through 2012.
