FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE:

Financial assistance -- To request an additional parent job for a $50 credit or to apply for financial assistance, please send a request to Geneva Pullen gb_pullen@yahoo.com.

Financial assistance will be given based on self-identified need (tax returns or the like will not be used in this calculation; rather, the scholarship committee will accept a family's proffer that they are in need of financial help).

Financial assistance will be given to a particular family after other avenues are explored, mainly, reducing the number of classes taken, choosing less expensive classes, providing that family with extra jobs based on availability.

Eligible will be those families who have attended PALS Enrichment classes at least one term and shown adherence to the program's policies. Preference will be given to those with school aged children, the primary targets of our program.

Finally, financial assistance monies available will be divided equally among children (not equally among families) of those who apply and are eligible for funds.
