			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Editor&#8217;s note: There is NO excuse for not applying.</p>
<p>Even if you do not have a college-aged child at home, please share this with someone who does, and to anyone and everyone that comes to mind. Though there are a number of companies and organizations that have donated money for scholarships to African Americans, a great deal of the money is being returned because of a lack of interest or awareness.</p>
<p>No one is going to knock on our doors and ask if we can use a scholarship.</p>
<p>Take the initiative to get your children involved.! Money shouldn&#8217;t be returned to donating companies because we fail to apply for it.</p>
<p>Please pass this information on to family members, nieces, nephews, friends with children etc. We must get the word out that money is available. If you are a college student or getting ready to become one, you probably already know how useful additional money can be.<br />
