Community Celebrating Diversity

The Community Celebrating Diversity Scholarship is funded by the corporate sponsors of the annual Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. celebration. CCD sponsors five $2,500 scholarships (two for pursuing a STEM degree and three for general education) to high school graduates who show promise of continued excellence in academics and community service.

These scholarships are for study at post-secondary institutions of higher education in Arizona. The following selection criteria are utilized in identifying our scholarship recipients:

• The eligible student must be a full-time resident of Arizona and has community involvement in Scottsdale.
• The eligible student must be a U.S. citizen, or provide evidence that he or she is a permanent resident of the United States.
• The eligible student must be a graduating high school senior with a minimum GPA of 2.8 on a 4.0 scale.
