    The Alpha-1 Advocacy Alliance announce the availability of a new dedicated "William H. Poplett Memorial Scholarship" in honor of our Alphas lost. Many of our fellow Alphas have asked that donations be made to the A1AA in their honor at their passing. The "William H. PoplettMemorial Scholarship" will once again be awarded this August to any Alpha continuing their formal education beyond high school.

    The Alpha-1 Advocacy Alliance will offer at least one $500.00 grant each year for secondary educations (college or graduate studies) to children of Alphas who fulfills the requirements of the grant. The number of grants will be based on the donations received.
    The following rules apply:
