Denise McCoy "little d" Memorial Scholarship

In 2004, the Capital Region Youth Tennis Foundation (CRYTF), which operates the 15-Love Program, in cooperation with Kevin McCoy, Denise McCoy's husband, established a scholarship fund in her memory. 15-Love and Denise share a passion for education and the belief that anyone with the desire to attend an institution of higher education should be able to find resources available to help make that happen.

Each year, CRYTF seeks to award scholarships to deserving students who have participated in the 15-LOVE program at any point during their lives. The scholarship is generally given for four years, and typical awards are $1,000 per academic year (for a total of $4,000).  Scholarship recipients are expected to maintain contact with 15-LOVE annually to report on their progress while in school, through a January progress report.

Students interested in applying for the 2010 scholarship must submit a scholarship application and recommendation forms by April 16, 2010.
