Diane Ortiz, K2DO, President of the Young Ladies Radio League (YLRL) let
me know that the YLRL is offering scholarships to YLs. Here's the
information she sent:

If you know any YLs who might be interested, the deadline for the YLRL
scholarships is coming up on April 1!

The YLRL would love to give that money away to a YL in ham radio in
college! https://ylrl.net/apply/
