The LeadingAge Minnesota Foundation is excited to offer educational scholarships to eligible caregivers and other employees of our member organizations for 2024.
Scholarship awards range from $500 to $1,500, and one $2500 scholarship may be awarded to an applicant who demonstrates exceptional commitment to aging services.
Scholarships are a great way to help your employees achieve their higher education goals and advance their careers within the aging services field where they are so needed. We’ve created a flyer to promote the scholarship program with your employees.
