In November 2021, through a Community Scholarship powered by Sterling National Bank, your child received $133.92 in their NYC Scholarship Account to help them achieve their college and career dreams! This was part of a $15,000 investment Sterling National Bank made into the NYC Scholarship Accounts of 1st-4th graders enrolled in the Save for College Program at P.S. 111Q during the 2021-2022 school year.

Now, as the result of a Sterling National Bank employee matching campaign, your child has received an additional $13.08 in their NYC Scholarship Account!

Community Scholarships are a key way for families, schools, and communities to save together for students’ educational futures.
