Scholarship Description

Start Date:
3/1/2017
Deadline:

Website:
http://www.ernstlawgroup.com/brain-injury-caregivers-scholarship/
Amount:
$1000.00
Description:
As passionate advocates for injury victims, we at the Ernst Law Group want to recognize the efforts of caregivers and help them achieve their goals in life. Being a student is never easy, and often involves working a job as well as putting in long hours of study. This is particularly challenging for those who also care for a loved one with a brain injury. We hope that this scholarship will help make the road to education easier and allow caregivers to pursue the career they dream of.

We believe everyone should have an equal opportunity for education and that caring for a loved one should not be a barrier to success. We are happy to provide this scholarship and look forward to awarding it.
