Marion Huber Learning Through Listening Awards, with an application deadline in January, offers numerous awards of $6000 each.

Description

Each year, the Marion Huber Learning Through Listening awards are presented to Learning Ally high school senior members with learning disabilities, who plan to continue their education after graduation, in recognition of their academic achievement, outstanding leadership, and service to others. Offered since 1991, the awards are given to students who are chosen by a selection committee. Learning Ally awards the top winners $6,000 each and special honors winners $2,000 each. Applicants must submit a personal narrative in writing and video recording about their learning difference and how Learning Ally changed their life. Details of any milestones, honors, awards, and noted achievements, including educational honors, special awards, honorary society memberships, and any special accomplishments (recognition, scholarships, and talents) are also required. A brief description of any of the applicant's extracurricular, community activities, and leadership roles must also be submitted. Please provide time frames and the extent and level of involvement. Applicants must also submit one letter of recommendation from someone (must be a non-relative and not a legal guardian) who has had a positive influence/impact on their academic performance and success. This may be a teacher, tutor, community leader, or school administrator who knows the applicant personally and can speak to their classroom performance and extracurricular activities. Please visit the scholarship's website for more information.
