Scholarships

If you are a member of the Sage-ing Guild, you may apply for a scholarship (note: Professional members have priority). These will be awarded in amounts ranging from $75.00 to the full conference cost, depending on need and the availability of funds. Additionally, we may be able to assist with travel/lodging (but we can't confirm the availability of travel/lodging money until after June 2, 2008). [Lodging will be $50/night double occupancy in a suite with 2 bedrooms.]

Scholarships will be based on perceived need, the thoughtfulness of your response, and your interest in sharing what you learn in your community (for example, by starting a sage-ing circle) Our desire is to encourage the attendance of a diverse group of people who want to change the paradigm from aging to Sage-ing.

Scholarship application deadline is May 15, 2008.
If you request a subsidy, you must pay $75.00 to cover food costs.

We ask that those who receive subsidies help out during the conference by working in a volunteer capacity; our volunteer coordinator will contact the recipients to assign them a shift/job.
