We have donor(s) that are ready to provide cash funds for Scholarship. Option 1 is to add it to the Virgil Williams Scholarship Funds and continue that scholarship program as normal.

Option 2 could be create another fund (for example the Patriot's Scholarship Fund) and have donors for that, similar to the way that NGAUS has their Legion de Lafayette. The application for those scholarships could be the same and the Scholarship amounts could be the same as Virgil Williams program. The difference is that perhaps we would get more funds this way than under Virgil's named Scholarship. I'm fine either way.

If this becomes a new thing, we could add special seating at banquet and perhaps other benefits for the donors. First question for the group is: "Is there support from the EC to create another Scholarship Fund and move towards a Legion de Lafayette type of mechanism?" If such a motion were to pass, then we can move forward with program specifics. But we need to first determine if we want a "competitor" to the Virgil Williams program.
