SCOPE:
The assistance is limited to residents of greater Birmingham, AL and THTCCB community. Consideration for the assistance will be given to high school juniors and seniors, undergraduate students, and other students as deemed appropriate.

OUR PHILOSOPHY:
We place a greater emphasis on education. This educational assistance is our way of passing this tradition on to the new generation.

The assistance award (the award) selection will be primarily based on applicant’s family financial needs for desired education. Other factors for the award consideration may be academic performance, participation in community services, youth activities, etc.

Our attempt is to encourage young people to develop a strong sense of responsibility for the need to contribute to our society in the area of education and community services.

This much needed project is supported by generous contributions from our community members and as an administrator of the program THTCCB would like our youth to take its full advantage.
