Scholarship and Recruitment: 

A key objective of our chapter is to provide scholarships to deserving Bama bound students from Arizona and to assist in the recruitment of future Arizona high school students who are considering The University of Alabama for their higher education.  We are only able to reach these goals through the continuous support of our chapter members, the local alumni and friends of The University of Alabama. 

In 2010, the Alabama alumni chapters in Phoenix and Tucson together established the Grand Canyon State Alabama Alumni Endowed Scholarship.  We are striving to reach the minimum goal of $20,000 in corpus funding so that scholarships can be awarded to deserving Arizona students bound for the University of Alabama.  Contributions of alumni and friends to the Scholarship fund are also matched annually by proceeds from the University of Alabama car tag sales in Alabama so every contribution matters and with income from the corpus can grow quickly to reach our goal.    As of July 20, 2011, the corpus balance in the Grand Canyon State Alabama Alumni Scholarship fund was approximately $12,900.
