Scholarships

Scholarships are awarded every year at the October General Meeting!

SOSCA awards three (3) Family Book Scholarships in the amount of $150 each AND five (5) SOSCA Book Scholarships in the amount of $300 each. SOSCA begins taking scholarship applications after announcing a start date in summer. The deadline to turn in scholarship is in September every year. Winners are announced at the October General Meeting.

Scholarships are awarded every year at the October General Meeting! Applications for both the Member Book Scholarship and Family Book Scholarship are available by clicking on the following links:

– Member Book Scholarship Application
– Family Book Scholarship Application

You can also find these applications at joinsosca.org Applications are due September 25th at 5pm. Applications are made anonymously to the Scholarship Committee that meets and votes on the winners. Our scholarship program is one of the many perks of being a member!

IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS, PLEASE CONTACT A SOSCA BOARD MEMBER.
Disclaimer: If–due to a lack of qualified applicants in one or both scholarship programs–there are extra funds, the SOSCA Board reserves the right to reallocate funds as they deem fit.

President’s Message

Greetings to all past, present, and future SOSCA members! I am happy to report that our Board is making big changes to bring more benefits to our classified members. We have expanded our scholarship opportunities and continue to provide informative, fun, lunchtime presentations. We are increasing accessibility to our presentations, meetings, and voting by bringing traveling to different locations, using video conferencing, and offering different times. We have even partnered with a local credit union to give SOSCA members exclusive financial benefits. 2019 has been a whirlwind of improvements here at SOSCA, and we plan to make 2020 equally exciting and beneficial to our members. We also recognize that there are a lot of changes and shifts at KCSOS, and just know that as your experience these changes, we are still here for you. Your classified association is always here fighting for you!
