Applications are now available for the two scholarships offered by the Harness Horse Youth Foundation. Completed applications are not due until April 30, but early submission is encouraged. Log on to https://www.hhyf.org/hhyf-scholarships.html to access the applications and each scholarship’s eligibility requirements and general information.
The HHYF scholarships are the $2,500 Curt Greene Memorial Scholarship for students who have demonstrated a passion for harness racing and have financial need; and the $1,000 Sweet Karen Scholarship for alumni of HHYF Summer Programs. HHYF has awarded over $630,000 in scholarship grants since 1976.
The HHYF website also provides a comprehensive listing of harness racing-related scholarships available through other sources, which is frequently updated. That list is available at https://www.hhyf.org/industry-scholarships.html.
Executive Director Ellen Taylor will be happy to answer specific questions regarding the HHYF scholarships and/or the listing of racing-related scholarships. She may be contacted by email [email protected] or by phone 317.908.0029.
