Celebrate Freedom Foundation™ PROVIDING Scholarship Opportunities for 15 – 18 Year Old Students The goal and mission of the Celebrate Freedom Foundation™ is to educate people, especially our children, on the "price of freedom" and the sacrifices so many of our nation’s men and women have made to protect our people (you and me) and our country. As part of this effort we award scholarships to deserving high school students (ages 15 to 18). Each year students are eligible to receive scholarships by winning essay contests or by some other highly selective, Board approved process. Starting in 2002, the Joe Tobul Memorial Scholarship has been awarded annually to a deserving student. In 2004 we added the second scholarship, the Rebecca Pepin Education Scholarship. The winners receive an all expense paid trip, which includes tuition, a clothing package with a team patch, to the US Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama to attend Space Camp, the Aviation Challenge Mach III curriculum. 2007/2008 Recipients
8 Days – July 18 – 25, 2008
Beginning with the 2004/05 winners all scholarships have been funded in part by the Celebrate Freedom Charity Golf Classic held each Fall at the Fort Jackson Golf Club.
