$5,000 scholarship for single fathers

While this is great to improve equality right now, I'd like it better if we did away with this genderer bull shit and turn all scholarships for single fathers and mothers into scholarships for single parents.

Thanks. Passing this on to a single father who is in definite need.

Holy. Shit.

This is great! Good to see things like this.

Wow, this is really cool.

Awesome.

I hope they don't try to deduct child support out of it.

This is what progress looks like, my friends.

If you can afford to, please consider donating and citing this scholarship as the sole reason you are doing so. That kind of thing really gets peoples' attention.

Disclaimer: I have zero ties to this organization.

This is amazing.

Does anyone know if there are any scholarships available to fatherless-sons? I spoke to my school about it and the only one they knew of was specifically for minorities.

awesome.

I remember when I posted my male only scholarship on Mensrights. "No" they said. "you are supporting affirmative action" they said.

But really this is great

Thanks... I may actually apply for this!

I should have a kid... /s

Question: does this apply to non-custodial fathers?

mraanon · 2013-04-25T09:02:33+00:00

We should not be encouraging single parenthood.

miserablesecret · 2013-04-25T19:17:34+00:00

I'm willing to bet this doesn't apply to fathers who have joint legal custody but don't have placement.... There are no resources for men like that. (i.e. me)

suicidesermon · 2013-04-26T06:03:59+00:00

I think it's incredibly sad that this was done wholly without the MRM.

Why isn't the MRM organizing scholarships like this? What the fuck are we even doing?

CrossHook · 2013-04-25T12:56:18+00:00

It's a start. But I want to see equal scholarships for men as compared to those currently for women DOWN TO THE FUCKING PENNY.

Equality, Bitch.
