Spelling Bee Scholarships

October 10, 2020 Shobha Dasari, Shourav Dasari, and Usha Chava Dasari

We are happy to announce that SpellPundit and Morph (www.morph.org) are co-sponsoring a project to help underrepresented students qualify for the prestigious Scripps National Spelling Bee. The recent events in the US highlighted that some sections of the society do not have resources to reach their full potential and this new initiative is a small contribution to help the cause.

We are looking for students who have the ambition to be in the Scripps National Spelling Bee (and on ESPN) but do not have the financial resources to prepare.

This is completely free for the qualified students, who will receive the best coaching and study resources.

Please register today at https://spellpundit.com.
