September 25, 2017 Dear Brother / Sister Officer: 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 Officers who are also students and are attending college will be eligible for the scholarship, as well as the children of Correction Officers. No age limit will be applied to Correction Officers 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 Officers. 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 Officers who are continuing their education, as well as for retirees. The strength of our Scholarship Fund is reflected by the unprecedented $650,000 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 650 scholarships. We encourage you to fill out the application and return it as soon as possible. All applications must be received by November 9th, with the attached verification of student status. The lottery drawing will be held at the November General Membership Meeting at Riccardo’s Catering located at: 21-01 24th Avenue, Astoria, NY 11102.
