Friends of MBBA, Inc., the philanthropic arm of the Metropolitan Black Bar Association invites you to apply to the 2015 Honorable George Bundy Smith Scholarship. The Honorable George Bundy Smith Scholarship Fund offers three scholarships to students who demonstrate qualities of leadership, a passion for the arts and sciences, or a commitment to diversity and academic excellence. The Fund is in honor of Judge Smith, who for many years provided board leadership and guidance to the Metropolitan Black Bar Association, including starting the organization’s first scholarship fund. Above all, Judge Smith values education and leverages his success to the benefit of the African-American community.
The application submission has been extended to Friday, April 10, 2015. Attached is the flyer detailing the application process and how you may apply. The winners will be honored at the 31st MBBA Annual Gala on Friday, May 15, 2015 at Pier Sixty in New York City.
