It is often announced that countless millions of dollars in scholarship money goes unused annually. Part of this is due to employer benefits that go unclaimed. Others have to do with unusual scholarship funds, which might not be discovered by the masses. Diligently searching out the opportunities for scholarship funding can pay off nicely. Scholarships for dog lovers, left handed students, and for descendents of the American Revolution have been found by students via the internet.
