He worked to learn the business, and after years of hard work, he became a highly qualified powder man with national recognition and over 200 patents. He was promoted to partner. Over the years, DuPont’s insider knowledge of emerging tech amid the Industrial Revolution, as well as his smart business tactics, helped him retain his wealth and reinvest in the South Florida community through the depression. When DuPont passed away in the 1930s, his estate formed a trust, which provided most of the funding for the Nemours Foundation and established this scholarship in his memory in 2005.

Our read on this award
3 figures we worked out, not the sponsor's. Free, and it takes an email address.
How these are worked out
- Our grade. From three facts the sponsor published. How few can apply: one high school or city 3 points, a county 2, the state 1, the whole country 0. How much it pays: $10,000 or more, or at least half of tuition, 3; $2,500 or more 2; $1,000 or more 1. Paid again in later years: 1. A is 4 points or more, B 3, C 2, D 0 or 1.
- How narrow the field is. Read from where the sponsor restricts it. An award open to one high school is competing against a graduating class.
- Conditions to meet. The conditions the sponsor published, each listed under Who can apply. More conditions means a smaller field, which is good news if you meet them.
- None of it is a chance of winning. We do not know how many people apply or how a sponsor chooses, so we do not publish a percentage. Anyone who does is guessing.
