Show Notes

The Michigan Chronicle/Huntington Bank S.W.A.G. (Students Wired for Achievement and Greatness) Scholarship Awards program was launched in 2015 to ensure that more Detroit students who demonstrate leadership in areas other than academics, have access to scholarship dollars.

I had the opportunity to speak to LaTrice McClendon, Community President for Huntington National Bank, Detroit about the 7th annual “SWAG Awards;” how much scholarship money is available, who is eligible, how to nominate teachers for grant money and most importantly, how students can apply.

Applications for the 2022 Michigan Chronicle/Huntington Bank S.W.A.G. Scholarship Awards and Educators Award deadline for submissions is April 1, 2022 at 11:59 p.m. Students, teachers, and parents interested in learning more should visit www.michiganchronicle.com/swagawards.
