Read and follow these instructions fully prior to submitting your application.

1. Please fill out the information below accurately, completely and carefully.

2. This is a $100 scholarship. A member share purchase is $200. Therefore, if you receive the scholarship, you are expected to contribute $100 toward your member share. The scholarship will be awarded when payment is received, and that will complete the member share payment.

3. While we do not require specific proof of financial need, by filling out and submitting this scholarship application, you are indicating that a full member share purchase is a significant financial hardship for you at this time.

4. Application deadline is Friday, December 18, 2020.

5. If you receive $100 toward your $200 member share purchase, you will be notified by the first week of January 2021.

This scholarship covers half of the cost ($100) of a member share purchase ($200). If selected, you will be responsible for the remaining amount of $100. You are not a full member-owner of the Rooted Carrot Co-op Market until you have purchased the full share. Full share holders can vote and use their member-owner cards for business partner discounts.

Should you receive the scholarship and in the future request a refund, IF the Co-op is able to honor the refund request, you would receive only the amount that you invested in your member share purchase ($100 or whatever amount you have paid at that time). For more information on redemption of member shares, please see the co-op bylaws.
