Dear fellow Hanoverians:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

During this short lull between the end of winter basketball
\nand hockey seasons and the advent of spring soccer, baseball and softball, I
\nencourage you to take a moment and read up on the Hanover Permanent Scholarship
\nFund.  This is a great organization that has quietly given away almost a
\nhalf of a million dollars to Hanover school seniors since its inception in
\n1977.  But, unless you have had a child graduate from high school
\nrecently, my guess is that the HPSF is off your radar.  Your awareness of
\nand an investment now in the HPSF will ensure that even larger scholarships
\nwill be available for Hanover students in the years to come.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

I had the chance to catch up with a couple members of the
\norganization this week, and was pleased to learn that they have invested
\nconservatively over the years. So despite the stock market decline, they will
\nbe able to maintain the dollar amounts given in the form of scholarships at
\ngraduation this spring.  The concern that I still have, though, is that the
\nneed is far greater this year.  Many of us have watched our college funds
\ndecline by 50%.  And what about our friends and neighbors who don’t
\nhave college funds?  The general HPSF scholarships are awarded based on
\nacademic achievement AND financial need.  Thank goodness.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Thanks so much to the good folks at the HPSF for sending me
\nthe documents that are located at the following links set up by my dear
\nwebmaster Mike Van Lare.  Below please find their brochure:<\/p>\n
