Nashville Sounds Foundation Now Accepting Scholarship Applications

/in /by

The Nashville Sounds Foundation is now accepting applications for its 2023 Scholarship Program. The foundation will award four scholarships worth $2,500 each to graduating high school seniors who plan to attend college in the fall of 2023.

The program, which began in 2016, has awarded $70,000 in scholarships and is designed to assist Nashville and Middle Tennessee students in paying for college tuition during their freshman year.

“The Nashville Sounds Foundation is grateful to support Middle Tennessee area students in their pursuit of higher education for the eighth straight year,” says Nashville Sounds General Manager Adam English. “We’re extremely thankful for our fans whose support through fundraising efforts and donations makes this scholarship program possible.”

Interested seniors must complete the application process, which includes submitting a 500-or-less word essay on mental health and bodily nutrition in the workplace. In addition to the essay, each submission must include at least two letters of recommendation from a teacher and/or coach and an official high school transcript. The scholarship will be awarded based on the culmination of the student’s schoolwork, extracurricular activities and involvement in the community.

Each winner will receive tickets to a select 2023 Nashville Sounds game and will be recognized during a pre-game ceremony. The deadline to be considered for the 2023 scholarships is Friday, Feb. 17, and winners will be notified no later than March 27.
