The dA Scholars Project! (November 2009 Update)

Journal Entry: Sat Nov 7, 2009, 8:47 AM


So what is the Scholars Project?

The dA Scholars Project(dASP) is a petition for a small (or large) Scholarship to be awarded from dA to a worthy applicant who plans on pursuing a degree in the Arts. This includes majors such as Creative writing, Art, Culinary Arts, Graphic Design, etc.

It wouldn't be a random deviant picking, or a "who's the best artist/ who draws the best yaoi" type of thing, but rather a scholarship for someone who really wants and needs it. There aren't a lot of Art Major scholarships out there, and I'd really like to see this take off, and hopefully get backed by the dA administration, but in order for that to happen, I need the backing of the dA members.

There's a lot you can do to help get this thing up and going.

  • Spread the word

  • Post a Link in your signature

  • Write a Journal

  • Plan to Donate



How do I show my support?

:pointr:It's really simple, just watch this club and spread the word. One journal is all it takes! Try to get as many of your friends to support this as possible. We need all the help we can get. If you plan on donating, you can send a pledge in, that is, a note saying how much you'd donate if this ever gets off the ground. But notice: We are not asking for, or accepting any monetary donations at this time Unless you plan on buying a subscription for this account, no donations for the scholarship are being taken.

:pointr:We are currently also looking for staff, that is, permanent PR people. If you are interested in spearheading a couple of projects meant to get the word out there, send a note to this account.

Also, they will go into our very special Stamp Collection.

Look who's back! It's been quiet over here in dASP land, and no small part of that is due to the busy busy head minion. I'm in college as you all know, and I can't get in here as often as I like. I'm so glad that this place hasn't died off while I was gone! Thank you all for your continuing support, and make sure to tell your friends about this. There are lots of new and fun things planned in the up and coming months.

As for the project itself, we now have 143 confirmed supporters! Or goal is 1,000 confirmed supporters of this project. We are well on the way!

Please be patient with me while I build an administrative base for us, as well as get the word out. Remember, we can always use more support, so bring your friends!
