September 28th, 2020 Dear Brother / Sister O�cer: It is time once again to apply for the $1,000 scholarships awarded by COBA. The scholarship will be awarded to children from the ages of 5 to 19 (up to 23 for those attending college). This year, as in previous years, Correction O�cers who are also students and are attending college will be eligible for the scholarship, as well as the children of Correction O�cers. No age limit will be applied to Correction O�cers who are also college students, although proof of current college attendance will be required of all those who apply. The COBA Scholarship Fund provides $1,000 scholarship checks to the children of Correction O�cers. Because of our success and through the support of many generous donors, the fund has been able to expand its scope over the years to include scholarship awards for Correction O�cers who are continuing their education, as well as for retirees. The strength of our Scholarship Fund is reflected by the unprecedented $770,000 in scholarships that have been awarded over the past twenty years. Since its inception in 1996, the COBA Scholarship Fund has provided a total of 770 scholarships. We encourage you to fill out the application and return it as soon as possible.

All applications must be received by November 13th with the attached verification of student status. The lottery drawing will be held in November.

Please note that this is a one time scholarship award. Previous winners are not eligible. Winner need not be present.

Sincerely,

BENNY BOSCIO JR.
