FANTASY QUEST SCHOLARSHIPS (revised May 2018) A group of generous donors has agreed to sponsor players, on a per Event basis, who presently cannot afford to attend Fantasy Quest events for one reason or another. If you are having a cash flow problem but still would like to come to FQ, there are a limited number of scholarships available. The only conditions are that you have to explain why you need the scholarship, and you have to be willing to do an 8-hour NPC shift. The requests will be kept confidential, being reviewed only by the Keepers. They will decide to whom the scholarships will be awarded, and, in doing so, they will take into account past participation and the reason for the request. If you are interested in being awarded one of the scholarships, please send an email to:FQregistration@FantasyQuest.orgSCHOLARSHIP DONATION INFORMATION - We've had several inquiries about how to donate to the scholarship fund. Anyone who wishes to donate to the may send a check payable to "Fantasy Quest Productions, Inc.", write "scholarship fund" in the memo line, and mail it to PO Box 235, Groton, CT, 06340. Donor and recipient names will be kept confidential. Any amount will be accepted; every $50 will fund one scholarship. If you have any special conditions, or want a copy of our IRS approval letter for a tax deduction, then include a note with your check. Thank you for your willingness to help!
