Kohl’s associates may nominate non-related children. Members of Scholarship Management Services selection committees may not nominate a child.
Nominees may only be nominated once and may not have been a prior Kohl’s Kids Who Care® regional or national scholarship recipient. Multiple nominations for one nominee will not be accepted, even if submitted by different nominators. Awards are for individuals, so please nominate only one person per entry. Entries containing multiple names will not be accepted.
Nominations: Nomination forms may only be completed and submitted at www.kohlskids.com. No paper nomination forms will be accepted. Forms must be submitted and signed electronically by a nominator who is 21 years or older no later than 11:59 p.m. CST, March 15, 2009. Multiple students may be nominated by one nominator, but each application requires a unique email address. All sections of the nomination form must be completed. Nominees who become winners and their parent/guardian must sign a Publicity Release/Scholarship Acceptance Form prior to receipt of any scholarship.
Nominations should describe how the nominee has contributed to the community in a meaningful way by performing volunteer services that helped non-family members. The volunteer activity must have occurred within the last 12 months. Financial need or academic performance will not be considered in the review and selection of winners.
Kohl’s and Scholarship Management Services shall not be responsible for misdirected, incomplete or late nomination forms. All nominations become property of Kohl’s and Scholarship Management Services and will not be returned or acknowledged. Additional information about a nominee and/or documentation may be requested by Kohl’s or Scholarship Management Services. To remain eligible, nominees must provide all reasonably requested documentation and information upon Kohl’s or Scholarship Management Services’ request.
As a supporter of equal opportunity, Kohl’s will work with Scholarship Management Services to distribute awards to minority students on a basis at least proportionate to the number of known minority nominees.
Awards: Nomination forms will be separated into two age groups: ages 6-12 and ages 13-18. Kohl’s plans to recognize one nominee from each age group as a store-level winner for each Kohl’s Store. Store winners will receive a $50.00 Kohl’s Gift Card. Additionally, one hundred ninety-four $1,000 regional scholarship awards are planned, 97 to each age group. Ten $5,000 national scholarships will be awarded, five to each age group. In addition, Kohl’s donates $1,000 to a non-profit organization on behalf of each national winner.
Notification: Store winners will be notified in June 2009 and regional & national winners in July 2009.
