Third Annual Patriots Path Scholarship Program

The Patriots Path Scholarship Program is an extension of NYCLB’s current Military Outreach Programs (helping Veterans and Active-Duty Military families).

We stand at a unique moment where we can make a significant impact on the lives of our military youth. The Patriots Path Scholarship Program, now in its third year, has been a beacon of hope for high school seniors in the Sea Cadets, Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps (JROTC), and college-level students in the Reserve Officer Training Corps (ROTC), helping to offset the cost of their college-level education.

However, the need for support is greater than ever. Our goal for 2025 is to raise $5000 to award scholarships to five deserving students, each receiving $1000 to help offset the cost of their college education. These scholarships are awarded based on merit (GPA 3.0 or higher), financial need, and a review of their written essay.

We have until July 1, 2025, to accept donations, which is also the deadline for student
applications. Every contribution, no matter the size, makes a difference. Together, we can ensure these dedicated students have the support they need to pursue their dreams and continue their path to leadership. Student selection for the scholarship award will be made on August 1, 2025.

Please visit our donation page at Patriots Path Scholarship to contribute today. Your support is deeply appreciated and will have a lasting impact on the lives of our military youth.

Going forward, you’ll see us promoting our scholarship at various NYCLB events. We’ll update periodically in Scuttlebutt. As a true gesture of our appreciation, all donors contributing a minimum of $250.00 will receive an invitation to a lovely lunch at the Club this summer.
