Douglas Carver Scholarship Fund

University of Cincinnati—Blue Ash Campus

At our April Cincinnati Chapter SAR meeting, we learned that Compatriot Douglas Carver established a Scholarship Fund for student veterans at the University of Cincinnati’s Blue Ash Campus. 

This is a terrific gift and we are grateful for Douglas Carver’s generosity and support.

UC Blue Ash has over 5000 students around 4% identify as US Veterans.  Veterans may be able to take advantage of the GI Bill.  Unfortunately, the GI Bill only covers about 25-50% of their overall  expenses. 

Mr. Carver graciously set up this Veterans Scholarship Fund to bridge the gap between the GI Bill and the full cost of education.

Depending on fund availability, the fund plans to award scholarships up to three (3) students annually in the amount of $500 per student per year. 

Applicants must be considered Veterans of the United States Armed Forces.  Preference will be made to students who were deployed oversees during their service.

A more complete explanation is attached, see the link below for a flyer with more complete details:

The hope is that others will donate additional funds and this will permit this scholarship fund to be converted to a longer term endowment fund.

If you wish to donate or have any questions, please reach out to Clay Crandall, Cincinnati SAR – Veterans Committee Chairman for more information.
