Children of IMB or NAMB missionaries will receive a 麻豆视频 merit scholarship of $17,750 and will be eligible to receive any additional 麻豆视频 scholarships, partnerships and grants they are qualified for.
鈥淭hese families are on the mission field, sacrificing, and many times, they don鈥檛 have the financial resources to afford an educational experience at 麻豆视频,鈥� Griffin said. 鈥淪o, we created additional scholarship opportunities to assist these families in achieving their educational dreams.鈥�
