$20,000 Scholarships from Foot Locker!

The Foot Locker Scholar Athletes program honors high school athletes for demonstrating academic excellence as well as flexing their hearts on their sports team and in their communities. So, we're celebrating YOU — not just because you scored the winning touchdown or goal — but because you've used sports to become a strong leader and volunteer in your community.

What: The truth is that many deserving students, who have dedicated a great deal of their time to athletics, will not receive athletic scholarships to college. Foot Locker and DoSomething.org will be rewarding twenty incoming college freshmen with $20,000 in scholarship funding for college - not because they scored the most touchdowns, but because of their character and commitment to volunteerism. This is the award for flexing heart, not muscle.

How Many: Twenty $20,000 scholarships for college.

When: Applications are open from September 20th to January 8th, 2012 and nominations are open until December 19th.
