https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/2MC3P7T
Amount:
Two students who are in good academic standing and attending a U.S. college or university will each receive a $1,000 scholarship from SeniorHomes.com for use in paying tuition and/or books.
Description:
Caregiving is a full-time job unto itself. And then when you add the challenges of being a full-time student—in addition to managing your own life—you are facing three full-time jobs and only 24 hours in the day. Yet you cannot walk away from any of these responsibilities. SeniorHomes.com understands what you are facing and would like to support you in achieving your goals of graduating and providing the best care possible for your loved one.

We are offering two $1,000 scholarships for caregivers who are actively enrolled in a U.S. college or university.

To apply, student caregivers may submit their story through a 1,200-word essay or a 5-minute video that tells us of your journey being a caregiver and student. Your submission should include:

Who is the individual you are caring for, and when did you begin caring for them?
How has caring for this individual affected your path in life or your career choice?
How would this scholarship be beneficial for you in your role as a caregiver and student?

Your #SeniorHomesScholarship story should be submitted to us by June 30, 2016. Winners will be announced by August 1, 2016.
