This fundraiser will be used to offer local students financial assistance to
further their education. These scholarships are awarded to high school
graduates
who live in the Cedar Park neighborhood. Yearly, graduating students who have
been accepted to a school for advanced education are eligible to apply for a
CPN
scholarship. The scholarship is renewable so long as the student maintains good
grades.
Cedar Park Neighbors (CPN) is the community organization for the Cedar Park
neighborhood of West Philadelphia, in the area of University City. This
neighborhood association annually provides scholarships to local students to
help defray the cost of books, fees, travel, or other needs. Established in
1988, the CPN Scholarship Program has made 97 awards for a total of $46,550.00
to more than 45 young neighbors. Scholarships for the 2008-2009 college
academic
year will amount to approximately $600/student.
