The NSA/ESA Youth Scholarship Program offers up to $12,500 in funds to children of active duty law enforcement and fire service personnel in the Clark County Nevada who are graduating from high school and going on to higher education. There are two NSA Chapter awards, and two national awards. This program rewards students who have excelled academically and are active in community service and extracurricular activities at their school. Check back to this website in January 2013 for the 2013 NSA Youth Scholarship Application.

Comments from Donna Soloway, long-time alarm industry member:
"... as a Co-Founder of the ESA Youth Scholarship Fund, I was proud to attend the Nevada Fire and Burglar Alarm Association's first Scholarship Awards presentation in Las Vegas during the ISC. You did a wonderful job in your organization of the presentation not to mention the wonderful choice of the two recipients, Karli and Skylar. The pictures in the "CAA Mirror" were outstanding! Congratulations to Howard Wulforst, John Perdichizzi and the entire Nevada Association on your achievement of this milestone which furthers our industry's commitment to education."
