How do I apply?
Note: Applications are closed for 2024
A brief description...
Everything about this scholarship is what we know Nathan would value. It very intentionally looks to be inclusive and perhaps draw you into thinking about being kind, while having fun.
To apply you need to be a current senior at Glen Ridge High School. Your application is just an email to the address below. Include your full name in the subject line. Write one to five lines in the body of the email, or send an image or video link that would cause the reader to smile or laugh. Anything works, be original, and be kind. 😊
Then hit send! As long as your submission creates a smile or chuckle, your name will be entered into a drawing. The winner will be chosen live at the scholarship announcement ceremony in the RAS auditorium.
Only one submission per person. No double dipping.
The winner is chosen randomly...?
Nathan liked to have fun and appreciated the magic of chance. He'd love the excitement and anticipation building among friends and teachers alike. All of it stemming from simple submissions of something funny, a smile-worthy kindness or a goofy, fun three line story, even a poem or wacky video!
He'd want it to be fun and an experience to treasure. And most of all, involve as many young people as possible in a celebration of possibilities, love and fun that all participants can take with them going forward!
So entry is just that one email...?
Yes! Just submit one of the below in an email (address below) that will make the reader smile or laugh 😆
One to Five lines of original text
An original image (link or attached)
An original short video (link to youtube or other)
That's it! It's easy and fun on purpose.

Note: If you have any issue with the link above, just copy and paste the address into an email or just type it in to one.
Any rules or is that it...?
Yes, just one. To foster the excitement and involvement in the spirit of the scholarship at the drawing, you must be present at the drawing to win. If your name is selected in the drawing but you are not present to claim your scholarship, another name will be drawn for the actual winner.
Kickstart your collegiate future!
Good luck and have fun with your submission!
