dA Scholarship?

Well, I was surfing dA and filling out a pile of scholarship applications and I thought, hey, dA doesn\'t have a scholarship!

So I got to thinking, what if dA members got together and donated a little $500 (USD) scholarship to a deserving member who is in high school or college and is planning on pursuing a career in art? You know, like majoring in Creative writing, Art, Culinary Arts, Graphic Design, the whole shebang. If we raised more than that, maybe we could give out more than one.Right now it\'s still all up in the air.

It wouldn\'t be a random deviant picking, or a \"who\'s the best artist/ who draws the best yaoi\" type of thing, but rather a scholarship for someone who really wants and needs it. There aren\'t a lot of Art Major scholarships out there, and I\'d really like to see this take off, and hopefully get backed by the dA administration, but in order for that to happen, I need the backing of the dA members.

If you\'d be willing to donate, just say so, I\'m not asking for money, because this isn\'t even off of the ground, and it will be safer in your pocket. Don\'t worry about this being a scam either, all of the people -myself included- who helped come up with this idea are completely ineligible. And if it actually comes to fruition, all of the judges or the panel should also be ineligible and impartial.

So, If you\'d be interested in applying or spreading the word just say so. If you hate this idea, please tell me why. This is a really rough draft of an idea, and I\'d like lots of feedback, good and bad. If you have any ideas on how to make this idea better, don\'t feel bad about replying!

Thanks for reading all of this!
So, what do you think?

Or how about if the people that run dA would be willing to match contributions by dA members.
