OUT Maine is thrilled to announce the award of scholarships totaling $31,000 to three outstanding young people to help them better their futures. This Spring, OUT Maine received over 25 applications for the OUT Maine LGBTQ+ Scholarship program.
After careful consideration, the OUT Maine scholarship committee selected three incredibly deserving applicants to receive scholarships to address their financial needs to attend the colleges/universities of their choosing for this upcoming fall with the intention of continued financial support over the remainder of their college careers.
