UPDATE: Project IMPACT SCHOLARS Program


Unfortunately, our partnership Project Impact Scholars Program with Prince George's Community College (PGCC) Allied Sciences Department for Fall 2012 is postponed; due to circumstances beyond our control.

Our partnership commitment between Project Impact Scholars Program and PGCC Department of Nursing will remain intact. Five (5) single mother and/or military widow nursing students will be awarded $250 in Fall 2012 for books, this is an increase of four additional students from Spring 2012.

Winners will be awarded at our Third Annual Black-tie Benefit Gala scheduled for Saturday, September 15, 2012, at The Club at Andrews, Andrews Air Force Base, Maryland. More information coming soon.
