ABOUT THE NAT MOORE SCHOLARSHIP ENDOWMENT PROGRAM
The Nat Moore Scholarship Endowment will provide scholarships to graduating seniors from high schools in Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach and Monroe Counties. No restriction is placed on the student's choice of school or discipline of study. The number of scholarships awarded is based on the funding available and the number of quality applications received. The scholarships are primarily distributed directly to colleges over four years, which helps to ensure that the student remains in school.
