鈥淭he entire Gotta Luv Them board had such incredible memories at 抖M女仆 which built a strong foundation for us in the professional world,鈥 said Whitney Trentine, president of the Gotta Luv Them Board of Directors. 鈥淲e are proud and excited to provide a scholarship that will minimize the financial restraints for students who are actively engaged in the 抖M女仆 community like we were, so these students can explore their own leadership potential and become a new wave of civic leaders in our community.鈥
The Gotta Luv Them Alumni Scholarship will provide recipients with financial assistance for one academic year. In addition to being active in social or academic Greek Life, recipients must maintain a minimum 3.0 GPA; be full-time sophomores, juniors or seniors; have completed at least 30 hours of community service; and submit a 500-word essay describing the importance of attending college and of leadership in the community.
Gotta Luv Them was established in 2013 as a nonprofit organization that would create fundraising events in local Florida communities to benefit education. The founding members hope to make a difference in the lives of students and give back to their alma mater. To date, Gotta Luv Them has provided financial support to the 抖M女仆 Alumni Association and the University Club of the 抖M女仆 Foundation.
