TAMARAC – Tamarac Commissioner Marlon Bolton is proud to announce the launch of the Tamarac Scholars program, a new scholarship initiative that will provide up to $2,500 each to select students to help fund their education at a college, university, or trade school.
The Tamarac Scholars program is funded by a $150,000 yearly donation from Waste Management. This totals over $1 million in seven years. The program will give out $112,500 in scholarships each year to students in the City. Also, $22,500 will go to CareerSource Broward each year. This will ensure five more internships for Tamarac students aged 16 to 18. The city’s three public schools will also receive $3,750 annually each to fund programs of their choice.
