LTV in East Hampton has announced its Community Scholarship Program to support community media and free speech.
Ideal candidates will have a commitment to community, a love of media, and a strong belief that all communities need to have access to accurate and unfiltered information.
“These are unique times for everyone but especially for our young people,” said Michael Clark, the executive director at LTV. “Any support we give, monetary or preparing them for the working world, can only help. LTV is here for the community and these young people are our future.”
Applications open Monday, March 8, and will be accepted until Monday, May 31. The first award will be announced in June.
The LTV Community Scholarship Program is open to all graduating high school students who reside in the Town of East Hampton and are seeking secondary education in communications, media, or related fields.
Each candidate should demonstrate school and community involvement and show good academic achievement. Besides a one time monetary award, LTV is also offering a possible internship. All details can be found on LTV’s website.
