Application for Unblight Unconference scholarship program
Unblight Unconference will bring together community advocates, technologists, journalists, policy makers and students interested in exchanging ideas and sharing lessons about combating blight and repurposing abandoned parts of our cities. We are committed to reducing barriers which may keep folks from participating in the unconference. That is why we are offering scholarships and partial travel stipends through the Unblight Unconference Scholarship program.

This scholarship program is designed to facilitate the participation of attendees from across the country to the Unblight Unconference which will be held in Macon, GA on August 14-15. For more information about the unconference please visit www.unblight.org or register here: http://bit.ly/1oGYflC

To maximize the number of scholarships we can offer, the scholarship amounts are capped at $500.

Unblight Unconference scholarships are made possible with the generous support of Knight Foundation. We are reviewing applications and issuing decisions on a rolling basis. All successful applicants will need to fill out and submit a W-9 in order to receive scholarship funding.
