Stand Watie Scholarship Fund
There can be no greater duty than to present the true history of the South to future generations, including your children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren yet to arrive. The Stand Watie Scholarship, named for the only American Indian Confederate General Officer, is a one-time award of $1,000 to young men and women, descendants of soldiers and sailors who served honorably in the CSA military. Applicants must have completed at least one year of post-high school education. The small size of this endowment currently limits the number of awards to only three or four per year, and increased support of this program through generous donations from members will enable the SCV to add to the number of educational grants provided annually. What better way could there be to positively influence future teachers, politicians, journalists, military officers, and leaders in all professions than to provide financial assistance with the high costs of attaining a college education?
