We are now accepting applications for the AVVA Better Chance
Scholarship. Established in January 1998, the scholarship
is one way that AVVA helps veterans’ families. The
scholarship targets average students who may not be eligible
for academic scholarships but want to attend college. To
be eligible for our scholarship, you must be a VVA or AVVA
member; the spouse, child, or grandchild of a VVA or AVVA
member; or a spouse, child, or grandchild of a servicemember
who perished or remains missing in Vietnam. You must be
registered in an accredited college, university, or post-secondary
training institute. You must be able to prove financial
need through the Federal Student Aid Application form.
Scholarship
amounts are $1,000, $750, and $500. To obtain a complete
form, go to the AVVA web site or contact the scholarship
chair. Completed application packages should be mailed to:
