Honorary David E. Gottfried Scholarship
In November of 2004, the organizing group of the Central Florida U.S. Green Building Council celebrated their Provisional Chapter Status. We were honored to have as our guest and speaker that evening, David A. Gottfried, Founder of the USGBC and WorldBuild. As a special thank you to David, we announced that evening that the chapter would begin a scholarship in David’s name to be given as funding allows.
The $1,000 scholarship is awarded each year to the student who, based on their completion of the scholarship application, has done the most for market transformation, stewardship and promotion of sustainability in their school, community or career field.
We are constantly looking for area students that display the characteristics of stewards for the environment through their actions and involvement in their community and academic field. The ideal candidate would display a balance in community, career, and school involvement while upholding respectable academic standards as well as possessing goals of applying their interest in sustainability to their desired career path.
The scholarship is available for all students currently enrolled in any college or university in the Central Florida region being defined as counties: Orange, Seminole, Brevard, Lake, Osceola and Volusia County.
Applications for the 2012 scholarship will be available in March 2012. If someone you know is eligible please encourage them to complete the application.
