We
understand that not everyone can afford program
fees. Therefore, we have set up a scholarship
system for those who need assistance. If you are
eligible for a scholarship you will only have to
pay a percentage of the program fee.
What do I need to
do?
To be eligible for
a scholarship you must be a current member of
the Boys & Girls Clubs of Bellevue and meet the
family size/yearly income requirements set by
our organization. Submit completed
Scholarship Application with a copy of your most
recent W2 form or a copy of your most recent tax
returns.
Scholarships will
be awarded on a first-come first-serve basis
and
a limited number of scholarships will be
available.
You must register
on-line for each program in addition to
completing a scholarship request. A scholarship
application alone does not register the
participant, nor does it reserve space in a
program. Registrations are processed in the
order received. You will be notified once your
application for scholarship has been received
and reviewed.
What if I do not
have my W-2 tax form?
We
request you bring in any forms you have that show
your income such as a months worth of paycheck
stubs, unemployment papers, etc. However, we do
prefer you bring your W-2 form. If you have
questions about this, please contact the Club at
425-454-6162.
*We
recommend you sign-up for a program before you
bring your application and tax information to the Club.
Select "Pay In Person" when you get to
the end of the registration. When you come into
the Club with your application and income information you can pay
for the program then and receive the scholarship rate.
**All program fees are eligible for scholarship, with the
exception of the annual membership fee!
***Your
scholarship rate is valid until April 1st. Scholarships
must be updated each year.
We
also offer *contract payment* options. With a
contract you must first sign up for the program(s),
then we can set up a contract for you to make
installments on the payment until it has been paid
off. Generally we ask for a payment each week.
