AOD is grateful to Toyota Motor Manufacturing, Alabama, Inc. (TMMAL), Huntsville, Alabama, for awarding us two grants in 2012 totaling $5,000. 100% of these grants went to the Learn and Earn Scholarship program for Anita Williams and Mona Cato.
AOD scholarships are most helpful for a student when the Pell Grant runs out. Pell Grants are designed to last a student for two semesters per year. Most colleges have three semesters per year. The AOD Learn and Earn scholarship can help a student stay enrolled when Pell Grant funds are not there and not have to sit out a semester and delay their educational goals (which also delays their entry into the job market and a new well-paying career).
Thank you Toyota!
