Jewish Federation in the Heart of New Jersey to notify you of the Ruth Kroll Scholarship and request your assistance identifying prospective candidates and encouraging them to apply.

We are seeking an exceptional young person that identifies as a woman between the ages of 16 and 19 who possesses a strong Jewish identity and nurtures the Jewish values embodied by Ruth Kroll: empathy, humility, inclusivity, non-judgment, and the ideals of education and women’s equality. The candidate currently lives and studies in New Jersey. She fosters a caring community and demonstrates a consistent and significant commitment to volunteer privately or in a public setting. She explores ways to make a difference in her community.

Applications will be reviewed by a committee and finalists will be invited to an interview. Recipients will receive a financial scholarship to be used towards continuing education or support of philanthropic interests. The application may be accessed at www.jewishheartnj.org/ruthkrollscholar.

Please review the attached Ruth Kroll Scholar FAQs and contact Laura at lauras@jewishheartnj.org or 732.588.1805 with any questions.
