JAMA Scholarship
In 2011, two area families looking for a way to honor their fathers on Father’s Day decided to do something that incorporated their Dads’ love for sports and education, and to give a helping hand to some young athletes in this community. Sports played a significant role in each man’s life, but they knew, and made sure their kids and grandkids knew, that athletics must be accompanied by a good education. So, in their fathers' names – JAmes A. (Jimmie), and MArtin K. (Marty) - the JAMA Scholarship Fund was created at Greater Norristown PAL.
At least one $1000 scholarship may be awarded each year. In addition to being recognized for outstanding athletic performance in high school or college, applicants must have volunteered at GNPAL over the two years prior to applying.
Completed applications, transcripts, and letter of recommendation must be reeceived
at Greater Norristown PAL no later than July 15.
