Affirmation: Gay & Lesbian Mormons

Need Help to Attend the Conference?
Irwin Phelps Scholarships Are Available

Affirmation offers financial assistance to help members who could not otherwise afford to attend conference. Scholarships are awarded on the basis of financial need and contributions to Affirmation, such as activity or willingness to volunteer for service. Funds are limited and scholarships will be awarded on a "first-come, first served" basis and only to those who establish a definite need for assistance.

The assistance provided is a 50% reduction in conference registration fees in effect at the time of your application. Regrettably we cannot provide assistance with hotel rooms or airfare.

Scholarships are available only for current Affirmation members, but we will accept a membership application or renewal and scholarship application simultaneously. Please do not wait until the last minute to inquire about scholarships! There is much more information about the Irwin Phelps Scholarship Fund and its history at http://www.affirmation.org/conference/irwin_phelps_fund.shtml.

To apply for this scholarship, send an email with your name, address, contact information, and reason for your request to David Melson at Dave_Melson

affirmation.org. You may also mail your request to Affirmation, P.O. Box 77504, Washington, DC 20013, Attn: Irwin Phelps Scholarship.
