"The Coca-Cola Leaders of Promise Scholarship allowed me to give all of my attention to the opportunities that Pearl River Community College had to offer without the stress of a financial burden. I was able to take on more leadership roles around campus and participate in groups that I ...wasn't able to before. These opportunities allowed me to do one of my favorite things: travel. I was fortunate enough to travel all around the state and parts of the country with my school groups and, participate in conventions symposiums, and learn so many new things! Special thanks to all the donors who contribute to these scholarships!" - Abbilyn Jones.

🐾 Ready, Set, Scholar Dash! 🏃♀️🐶
Meet Cooper, who might just become Indiana's next Scholar Dash mascot for 2024! 🐕🎉 This year, you can register your furry friend and enter them in the pet challenge for a chance to have them crowned as your region’s mascot. ...It’s all about having fun and raising funds together regardless of where we are for Phi Theta Kappa’s Golden Opportunity Scholarship. This helps cover the international membership fee so students can join and access all the amazing benefits of PTK.
When I joined PTK, my membership fee was covered through a scholarship, and that opened up a world of opportunities for me. From leadership roles to scholarships and connections, I’ve reaped so many rewards as a PTK member. Now, I’m excited to give back and help more students have the same chance!
Cooper and I are also close to completing ALL 5 CHALLENGES (this puts you in the drawing to win an APPLE WATCH), and I want to thank everyone who has donated to my page—so far, we’ve raised $240, which means 4 students will be able to join PTK! 💙
Join me (and Cooper!) in this year’s Scholar Dash—whether you dash yourself or get your pet involved, let’s make an impact together! 🐾💙

Ptk has three types of scholarships to offer:
Competitive Scholarships: These scholarships reward the members with highest academics and who have shown great leadership. These usually provide the most significant financial help.
Need-Based Scholarships: Ptk wants everyone to ...succeed therefore we give scholarships to those are facing financial challenges as well. Rather than dropping out, we want you to stay enrolled instead of getting overcome with financial burden and not have your education disrupted.
Transfer Scholarships: These are the scholarships that help students transfer into a 4-year college and make it more affordable. There is so many universities and colleges that give ptk members scholarships and this ensures that ptk is here for you to develop further into your education.

Introducing Natalie, Alpha Delta Delta chapter’s 2024-2025 Honors in Action Chair!
“Hi, everyone! My name is Natalie and I’m the Honors In Action chair! I am majoring in business administration at TCC for my associate degree but have a goal of pursuing my bachelor degree at a 4-year ...university in a related field. I chose to become a PTK officer because I wanted to be part of the impact it has on those on campus and around the community.
A fun fact about me is that I am the second person in my family to be a member of PTK Alpha Delta Delta! The first was my grandmother! I am beyond excited to be an officer for this organization that is deep in my roots. 🥰”

✨ PTK Awareness Week – PTK MEMBERSHIP STORY: BYRON KOURIS ✨
"Phi Theta Kappa was the best decision I ever made. Full stop. While attending CAC, I felt like my professors and peers really believed in me. They encouraged me to shoot for the stars, and they empowered me to pursue ...things that I never would have otherwise. This includes PTK. Phi Theta Kappa, and its All-USA/All-AZ Academic Team Scholarship ended up paying for the remainder of my undergraduate education after CAC! Were it not for PTK, and the people I met before, after, and during my time with PTK & CAC, I would never have applied to a scholarship, let alone a competitive one. All in all, PTK empowered me, uplifted me, and brought me to new personal heights. I can strongly recommend this organization to everyone wholeheartedly.”
🎓 At Central Arizona College, PTK provides incredible opportunities for personal, academic, and professional growth. Whether it’s building leadership skills, participating in service, or gaining access to life-changing scholarships like Byron, PTK is a gateway to a brighter future.
As we continue highlighting PTK Awareness Week, we celebrate stories like Byron's, showing how PTK transforms lives and academic journeys. Join us as we continue to recognize the impact PTK has on our students and how it can help you, too!

"To me, earning the Golden Opportunity Scholarship was a life-changing opportunity. Thanks to the scholarship, my advisor, and donors like YOU, I was able to start my PTK journey!
