The scholarship must be used for tuition, books, or fees. All children, grandchildren or great-grandchildren of a RESDC member may be eligible to apply for the Yakel Scholarships.
The two-month application period opens December 5, 2018 and closes February 5, 2019, at 2:00 p.m. Applicants should go to www.sdfoundation.org and fill out the Common Scholarship Application to be considered for the Theo Yakel Scholarship, as well as other scholarships they might qualify for.

A sponsor certification letter verifying that the sponsor (parent, grandparent, or great-grandparent) is a RESDC member must be attached to each application filed. This document can be obtained by calling the RESDC office at (866) 688-9229 or sending an e-mail request to resdc@resdc.net. The foundation requires this document be verified and signed by a RESDC staff member and will not accept an application without this document.
