Buckfire & Buckfire P.C. Disability Scholarship Program

The Buckfire & Buckfire P.C. Disability Scholarship Committee is now taking applications for the 2022 award year.

Students of any age with any form of handicap are eligible for the scholarship, including but not limited to physical disabilities, medical conditions, mental or psychiatric conditions, speech and language, learning disabilities, behavioral conditions, and all other conditions.

Our scholarship committee will award $1,000 to one deserving student.
