In that email, they should explain what they intend to do with the money to improve their bonsai skills and what they intend to do to give back to the bonsai community. Be creative.
Applicants who receive scholarships agree that in return for these funds, within 15 days of completing class, etc., they will provide CBS photos and a short write-up of what they did with the funds to improve their bonsai skills that will be published on our website and in our newsletter. They will also have to come up with and complete a way of giving back to the community and commit to doing this.

Awarding the scholarships will be by decision of a committee of California Bonsai Society Board members after going through all applicants. All committee decisions are final.
Everyone in the bonsai community is encouraged to apply for this chance to expand their bonsai knowledge and to help contribute to the bonsai community.
