Higher Education Scholarship Information

​Each year we sponsor a drawing for four Higher Education Scholarships.

Each scholarship is in the amount of $500.00.

The drawing will be held at the January Monthly Membership Meeting.

The union member must be present to win, unless they are working or there are other verifiable extenuating circumstances.

Only one scholarship will be awarded per family.

The Education Committee conducts the drawings.

The Executive Board will handle any protests of the results of the drawings.
