Your Gift Can Help a Student Build a Career—and Strengthen Our Community’s Workforce
When people have the opportunity to complete training for careers that provide financial stability, the impact reaches far beyond the individual. Greater economic security can support families and loved ones, while a skilled, prepared workforce strengthens the communities where we all live and work.
For students pursuing career and technical education, getting started can be challenging when the cost of tuition, supplies, and other expenses stand between them and their career goals. A scholarship can help remove that barrier and make it possible for a student to focus on building the skills they need for what comes next.
Through the JEVS Human Services Orlean Technical College (OTC) Scholarship Fund, your gift can help students pursue hands-on career training and prepare for jobs in fields where skilled workers are needed.
