"From a timid child who was afraid to go on stage to a confident, well-adjusted Grade Ten student who excels in public performance, my son Christopher has benefited enormously from the Doug and Debbie Hall Scholarship Program. He is now looking forward to a career in music, and the choice of where he lives will be dependent on the availability of a good pipe band." Susan Rodgers, mother of pipe band drummer, Christopher Rodgers.

Excellence Scholarships
To maintain the burgeoning instructional program in bagpiping and drumming, and to expand the scholarship offerings to include Highland Dance, Step Dance and other performing disciplines, Excellence Scholarships become of paramount importance.
Excellence Scholarships can be funded in one of two ways.
1)A $500 commitment provided annually by the donor.
2)A One-Time $10,000 contribution.
The one-time $10,000 commitment for a scholarship ensures that $500 in annual scholarships will be offered in perpetuity.
The $10,000 one-time contribution will be pooled with other Endowed Funds and continue to appreciate over time. None of the principal dollars contributed to the fund can be touched and only a maximum of up to ninety per cent of the interest on the principal can be used. This ensures that at least 10% of the annual interest on the principal will be rolled over and will continue to grow year after year, providing much needed long term security for The College of Piping.
The College of Piping currently is seeking support for 20 Excellence Scholarships:
5 in Bagpiping, 5 in Drumming, 5 in Highland Dancing and 5 in Step Dancing at $10,000 per Scholarship. These scholarships will recognize outstanding students.
To inquire about contributing to an Excellence Scholarship or the application process, please call 1-877-BAG-PIPE or E-mail us at info@collegeofpiping.com
