Scholarship Program 

As a matter of policy, the Yomechas Federation will not turn families away due to inability to pay. Families experiencing temporary or long-term financial hardship may apply for reduction or waiver of Yomechas Federation fees through our "scholarship" programs.

We realize that financial difficulties may be a source of embarrassment. When a family applies for relief, we strive to maintain discretion and confidentiality.

1. Pick up a fee waiver application from the Yomechas Federation Outfitter ( Jennifer anderson).
2. Fill out and return the form along with the required proof of income.
3. A letter of approval (or disapproval) will be sent to the applicant.
4. Once the letter of approval has been received by the applicant, it can be referenced when paying for campout fees, event fees, or other services on behalf of the applicant.
5. An approved fee waiver remains in effect for one year. A new request must be submitted each year.

1. The Yomechas Federation Chief and Wampum Bearer reviews the application, and calculates the amount of any Federation fees that will be waived.
2. When the reviews and determinations are complete, the Yomechas Federation Outfitter produces the final letter of approval.
3. One copy of the letter is sent to the applicant, the Yomechas Federation Outfitter retains one copy, and a copy is sent to the Yomechas Federation Wampum Bearer.
