Foundation Promotes Participation in Unigo Scholarship Opportunty
 
 
Those of you who have grandkids nearing the end of their high school
experience and looking ahead to selecting a destination for the next
phase of their education certainly need all the help they can
get...and that's where you come in! Guidance is critical in this
process and, of course, that includes the search for as many avenues
of funding assistance as possible. While your life experiences can
help your grandkids round out their choices for fields of study, you
can also be a great help to them in finding sources of financial
support, like scholarships.
Searching for scholarships can be an exhausting process. It can be
frustrating and stressful for the students as they deal with
applications and the development of supporting materials many sources
of funding require. So, to perhaps help you out on this front, the
AMAC Foundation was recently invited to promote one potential
scholarship source that may be of interest to you, especially in its
simplicity. Unigo.com, an online service referred to as the World Wide
Web's "largest resource of information to find, get in and pay for
college," has made available a $10,000 scholarship contest for
students from any discipline.
Requirement for entry into the contest is simple...complete a
250-word essay in answer to the question, _"Would you rather be smart,
funny, or rich? Why?"_ The deadline is December 31, 2022 and the
winner will be announced on March 31, 2023. For more information on
the scholarship opportunity, visit Unigo.com by clicking here

Foundation Makes Guest Appearance on AMAC Weekly News
 
 
AMAC Foundation was represented on the March 26 edition of the AMAC
Weekly News
[link removed]
with Executive Director Gerry Hafer joining radio and cable television
talk show host Ben Ferguson for a discussion on key events at the
Foundation. Hafer discussed the continuing upward trajectory in
activity on the Foundation's Social Security Advisory Service, noting
that 2021 volume represented a more than 33% increase over 2020 and a
more than 93% increase over 2019's level. He noted further that 2022
volume is continuing at record levels, well more than 600 per month.
Hafer also explained the newest feature of the Foundation's Social
Security-related public outreach -- the Social Security Instant
Academy program launched in mid-March. The new program, he reported,
features brief -- less than two-minute -- audio recordings covering
specific program aspects, such as "Do you know what your Full
Retirement Age is?" The recordings are being posted on the
Foundation's Facebook page and stored on the Foundation's website
