Serve It Forward Scholarship Opportunity!
University of Phoenix is partnering with the HandsOn Network to offer a scholarship program! Together, we are working to provide educational opportunities for individuals that volunteer with HandsOn Network membership programs.
HandsOn Network membership programs include HandsOn Action Centers, Business Members, Nonprofit/Government Members, HandsOn Corps, and volunteers participating in the Get HandsOn Challenge. As part of the partnership, the University of Phoenix has established the “Serve It Forward” Scholarship program with HandsOn Network. HandsOn Network includes more than 250 HandsOn Action Centers that reach out to more than 83% of the nation’s population and extends throughout 10 countries.
The University of Phoenix recognizes that many individuals aspire to further their career through education and service to become leaders in their community, and created the scholarship to help support those goals.
This is a wonderful opportunity for your volunteers to alleviate financial obstacles to an education. If you are a member of any of the HandsOn Network programs, please alert your volunteers of your membership type at HandsOn Network an offer them this incredible opportunity! You can to request a Serve It Forward flyer for your office, to send to your volutneers via email, or to pass out after a service project and share this opportunity with all of your volunteers!
