Thanks for reminding me of the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance. My daughter
used it to turn over rocks for her college education funds, saving good old Dad
much stress. She applied for and received scholarship funding from organizations I
couldn't believe even existed!

Pat,

A good place to start looking, other than local or state councils may be
the Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance. I work in a government
documents dept. of an academic library and many people use that to
search for scholarships and funding possibilities. It's actually online
as well: http://www.cfda.gov/default.htm
