Last Chance: Apply for VIPS Scholarships

Our new weekly feature lets you know about important deadlines coming up for the Falmouth community.

We've seen hundreds of events come and go in the community, but how often does one pass you by that you wish you hadn't missed out on? That's where we come in. Each week Falmouth Patch will post a quick reminder about the events, activities or important tasks whose deadlines have come.

This week, we're reminding you that Tuesday, April 10 is the last day to apply for one of two $1,000 scholarships that will be awarded by Falmouth Volunteers in Public Schools (VIPS) for juniors and seniors who value and have exhibited volunteerism and community service throughout their high school careers.

Current FHS juniors and seniors who have volunteered at least 100 hours are eligible. Documentation of the volunteer and/or community service hours is required. The application form is available in the FHS guidance office and can be downloaded from the VIPS website at falmouthvips.org.
