Celebrating 5 Years
The Matthew & Hannah Keator Family
Scholarship for New Americans


Making the American Dream a Reality
Since 2019, 45 local people have become U.S. citizens thanks to the Hannah and Matthew Keator Scholarship for New Americans program—Berkshire County’s first scholarship for prospective U.S. citizens. The scholarship covers legal services during the application process and the N-400 federal application fee. It also includes tutoring in English and Civics with a LitNet tutor.
“Some families might be faced with the decision to pay for the citizenship application cost or put food on their family’s table or sneakers on their kids’ feet, and we wanted to help make that decision a little easier,” Matthew Keator recently told LitNet.
"We are inspired by all the support LitNet provides to the community, and our partnership in this endeavor and the difference it’s making in people’s lives is something we are proud of."
