UAW-Ford Community Engagement Scholarship Extension of Community Service Deadline - The deadline for the 8 hours of volunteer community service that a dependent child must complete at a 501(c)3 for the UAW-Ford Community Engagement Scholarship has been extended to the scholarship application deadline of June 1 of each year. For example, applications and community service for the 2016 scholarship must be completed and submitted by June 1, 2017.
