You don’t want to miss this opportunity! “GK’s Cash for College” Scholarship will recognize and reward the volunteer efforts of high school juniors and seniors across the country. Cheerleaders are dedicated athletes who spend long hours at the gym, yet, many still find time to give back to their community. GK wants to shine a light on those exceptional individuals to share with the world that kindness and support for one another goes well beyond the cheer gym.

“GK’s Cash for College” Grand Prize is $1,000! Second Prize is $500 and the Runner–Up will receive $250. Scholarship applicants must live in the United States and must be a high school junior or senior who is currently participating in cheerleading.

Each entrant will provide necessary demographic information along with an essay of 350 words or less describing how they have personally contributed to the community in a meaningful way. GK wants to know how cheerleaders have made a difference in their community. The nomination period begins at 8AM EST on April 30, 2012 and ends at 11:59 EST on July 1, 2012.

The Grand Prize winner will be selected by a panel of judges, including guest judges Cory Hines from Top Gun, Drew Bewley-White from The Cheerleader Magazine, and Luke Johnson from Twisted Choreography.
