GOTRIbal aims to support women from everywhere, to do anything, despite the challenges that may block their forward progress. Our network is the first way we accomplish that goal -- a unique combination of pros, experienced and newbie athletes alike, GOTRIbal members believe in the power of unconditional support.
To that end, this scholarship fund is created to serve those who, by unforeseen or difficult circumstance, have not been able to more fully experience an endurance sport.
If you are interested in applying, please email Tanya at:
tanya@gotribalnow.com. Please put GOTRIbal Scholarship in the Subject line.. The document you receive will outline the questions a member must answer plus the process for applying for a GOTRIbal Scholarship.Reviews happen regularly and applications will be considered between Tanya and the Chief of the local TRIbe where the member is located.
Scholarships will be given as long as their are funds available.
For donors, the fund is not designed to burden our members with high donation expectations. The minimum is $10 USD and although there is no maximum, GOTRIbal encourages its members to know there is power in many of us giving a little. The testimony of many who reach to help with just a little can show those of us (teen agers, girls, those hit hard by a tough economy) who may not have plenty that it doesn't take a lot to make a huge difference.
(Uh, has anyone read about Pennies for Peace??)Thank you for considering Paying It Forward to others in the TRIbe!
* It's important to note that because GOTRIbal is NOT a charitable organization, designated with a 501(c) 3 tax-exempt status, there are no tax implications with a donation. It is a fund that is set up exclusively to be used for the purpose of supporting GOTRIbal members in the TRIbes beyond the support they get from discounts on products/gear, coaching and advice/guidance from the network's members themselves.
Onward and upward!
