Celebrity Scholarships for Real People
By Kathryn Knight Randolph
March 05, 2012
Celebrities have it all – fancy cars, luxurious mansions and exotic vacations. But when it comes to students, some celebrities are willing to give some of their fortunes away. Celebrity scholarships not only come with a big name but in big dollars.
The Christopher Reeve Award
Christopher Reeve was more than just Superman; he was super at giving back. Throughout his lifetime, he gave to the Make a Wish Foundation and Save the Children.
In order to qualify for the Christopher Reeve Award, students should be nominated by a non-relative who must detail the student’s community service efforts in the application. The application should show the student’s “tremendous passion and caring in serving his or her community.”
The Christopher Reeve Award is worth $1,000 and nominations are accepted between September 1 and October 31 each year.

I've always wanted to have the opportunity to meet a well-known famous celebrity. I'm still in high school and the high school i attend is White haven High School, located in Memphis, TN. I want to help my mom because shes done a plethora of things for my brother, sister, and i. I wish that whoever reads this can give me this opportunity to put my plans to action. My past has strengthen me and just seeing my mom go through so much when i was little shows me that she deserves the things she always wanted. Hopefully my music abilities will continue to grow although I'm in the national champs marching band and i play trumpet and its a blessing to be on the field of music. I hope that i soon have the chance to meet that outstanding celebrity. thank you. :-)

My parents are really struggling because we have our house, our business, and cabin to pay for plus 3 kids to provide for. My parents said i will finish college but wont be able to attend any UC'S or State schools because they really can afford it. And If i go to college I will be the first one in my family because everyone in my family had a kid instead. I have work my ass off I plus all nighters to perfect projects, I ask for help if I need it, I spend my lunches getting more help then I need and getting more boosts. I need this money badly :(
