Scholarship will help LGBT students whose parents refuse to pay Boseman-TenHuisen Schoiarship will help LGBT students whose parents refuse to pay for their LGBT child's education Outwilmington.com in cooperation with the office of University Advancement at the University of North Carolina at Wilmington announced creation of the Boseman- TenHuisen Scholarship. The scholarship arose when several students lost parental financial support when they came out to their parents. Working in partnership with the University, an endowment maintained by the University has been established to help students in need as well as awarding merit scholarship. The only requirement is that recipients membership in B-GLAD, the UNCW student organization serving LGBT students as well as allies. The scholarship is named for Mrs. Ann Boseman and Dr. Matthew TenHuisen in honor of their unconditional love and support for UNCW and the LGBT community — a commitment that continues to enrich the LINCW and Wilmington. Mrs. Boseman is the mother of the Honorable lulia Boseman, New Hanover County’s first openly gay elected official. Her unconditional love for her children, her active community involvement, and her fierce appreciation and support of UNCW set the standard and staked the claim for parenting by good, conscientious, and caring example. Through this scholarship, in her name, a student at risk for losing parental, familial support will not have to worry. This scholarship will provide unconditionally, just as Ann Boseman has done for her own children. Dr. Matthew TenHuisen is a tenured Mathematics Professor and Assistant Chair of the Math department of UNCW. For a decade. Dr. TenHuisen has been the advisor for the student LGBT and ally group on campus. He made certain these students were provided for and that they knew there was a place at UNCW. Through his work, Dr. TenHuisen provided leadership in organizing awareness training on LGBT issues. He has been there for countless LGBT students who needed safe haven and someone to trust. He was instrumental in making sure that the LGBT group included non-gay students so all students could have a place in this wonderful group and share in the vibrant and diverse community at UNCW. Once the endowment is funded, it will serve as both annual merit scholarship awarded to a member of the same organization and as an emergency fund. "Now we just have to raise the $25,000.00 to set up the endowment and seed it with $5,000.00 so that we can go ahead and start the awards process," said Outwilmington.com founder Bo Dean! “I have no doubt that we can raise this money.” The fundraising search is on tor twenty- five, $ 1,000.00 —or more— donors for the initial set up. Dean said, “We will raise the other money from whatever donations wo can accumulate. Once the endowment is funded, this scholarship will be there for the students of B- GLAD for ever!” info: tax deductible donations Boseman-TenHuisen Scholarship • c/o Office of University Advancement 601 South College Rood Wilmington, tJC 28403.
