Scholarship Database
AmeriCorps VISTA Volunteer, Emily Williams, and U.S. Navy School Liaison, Kristen Ferullo, have created a comprehensive, fully searchable Joint Services Scholarship Database for military dependents.
Taking over 500 hours to compile, this database includes 428 scholarships supporting military spouses, children, and dependents of all service branches. The Portsmouth Naval Shipyard proudly holds the first partnership between the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD) and AmeriCorps in the area of Military Family Support, bringing this database and future projects to life!
